I want to begin by expressing how thankful I am for the support and resilience you have all shown during this difficult period of time. Adjusting to learning from home cannot be an easy thing to do, and yet you have all done this so well. It has been a joy for me to receive feedback and pictures from many of you via email. Being able to see what you have been up to at home is a way to keep us connected, despite the distance between us, so please do keep the pictures and updates coming! I also want to say a huge thank you to all those key workers out there that are doing everything in their power to keep us safe-we will be eternally grateful for what you are doing for us our and country during these unprecedented times.
Holy Week begins this Sunday with what would normally be our Palm Sunday service in Church. As this also marks the beginning of our Easter Holidays, I will not be setting a Home Learning Project this week but the sites can still be accessed if you wish. Instead, I have attached a pack of Easter home learning resources and some other activities for you to have a go at during the break. Please do not feel that you have to complete the whole pack, pick and choose what you would like.
Easter home learning pack Why do Christians explore Easter? Explore Easter through fun and creative activities. Please send photos of your creations so we can share them here!
Easter Story writing Write up the Easter story and send me a copy to read.
Easter chocolate mystery maths game You are the detective and you have to solve the clues to to eliminate all-but-one of the suspects.
Easter code breaker Find the punch line to the Easter joke.
Easter mosaics Solve the maths problems to reveal the hidden picture.
Easter coordinates Write the coordinates of the Easter eggs.
As mentioned before, please do not feel you have to do all of the above. Even picking a couple of activities from the Easter Home Learning Pack would be great. Next week is also a time to reflect and spend quality time with your families-so enjoy each other’s company and keep Christ in your hearts as the week takes us on a journey towards His death and resurrection.
Please note that I will not be accessing my emails next week, during Holy Week. I am sure you will respect that it is also a time for us teacher to take a break. I will be accessing my emails again from Tuesday 14th April.
I wish you all a Happy and Holy Easter-stay safe, stay at home and stay smiling!
Miss Slater, Miss Evans & Mrs Murray xx
