Easter Holiday Home Learning Ideas

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for such an excellent term!  You have all worked at your absolute best and have stayed attentive right to the end of term, well done!  We wish you all a lovely, restful Easter Break.

Next term we will begin our new topic – Sow, Grow and Farm!  Watch out for more information coming on the website soon!

Over the holidays, you could always complete some of these ideas to help you prepare and find out a little bit about what the topic involves.  These are not compulsory but are really great fun and we would love to see any you complete in the new year.  Please also have a look at the reading list for the topic, there could be some books on here to enjoy in preparation for next term!
