How did Miss Kelly get a pink dinosaur? I’m so jealous. I wonder where she leaves

it when she comes to school?

Hello Emeralds, happy Monday! We have produced a bumper edition of home

learning this week, with lots of variety as I imagine you are starting to get tired of

home learning (which is understandable), so I hope you find some work that ap-

peals and even if it doesn’t we still have 4 weeks of school left and you need to keep

your brain active. Year 5’s, we have grasshead packs for you as a little treat, we will

ring you and drop them off. Please enjoy making them and be as creative as possi-

ble. Send us photographs when they have some crazy hairstyles please.

Take care. Mrs N-G x

Hey Hey,

Hands up if you’re finding home learning a little tedious and repetitive at the mo-

ment? I completely understand if you are, it must be so tough! Please do email me

if you need a chat! I think you are doing amazingly well and I love how creative

some of you are being. I’ve had an idea to help motivate us all...let’s get competi-

tive! This week, in English, there are some prizes up for grabs that will be delivered

straight to your door by either myself (if you’re in my class) or Mrs NG (if you’re

Emerald). Read page 2 for more information.

Can we help with the groceries, an extra item in the online shop?

Keep our two meters distance,

Do our bit to stop the spread.

Online, we Zoom: chat and laugh with friends.

Waiting for cakes to rise and keep our spirits up.

“New normal.” That’s what they say. Air-hugs and waves it will stay. For just a little longer. Mrs Gardiner
