Week commencing 29.03.2021

 

Good morning Fox Class,

I am so sorry we can’t be together again in class but we still need to continue to be stay at home superheroes. I am looking forward to talking to you on Teams or on the phone. 

The remote learning on this page will be set out in the same format as when we were previously doing Remote Learning. There will be clear links to any videos needed for the lessons and look out for any additional videos in response to feedback being given.

If you need to contact me please use the contact me section at the bottom of our class page, send me an email, or book a bookings appointment. I will be available every morning between 9:45 and 10:45 am and every afternoon between 1:00 and 2:00 pm. For the next three days, we will start the day with a get-together at 9 am so that we can continue to connect with each other. Storytime and mindfulness will take place every day at 11 am.

 

Take care and stay safe,

From Mrs Davies 😊

This is the timetable for this week.
