Good Morning! I hope you all managed to get back into the home learning routine, after a couple of weeks break. Judging by the email updates, pictures and online activity, I can see the majority of you are straight back into the swing of things! As always, I am so impressed with the work I have been sent (I have put pictures of R & J work at the bottom of the blog), and I always enjoy receiving those updates-so please continue to keep in touch! Many parents have commented on how much their child enjoys hearing from me, via email- well the feeling is mutual! So please feel free to send me pictures of anything they have been up to in the week, and where they have been. It would be nice for me to share these pictures on this blog as well, so the rest of the class can see what their peers have been up to! This is another way to keep us all connected, despite the distance between us!
Also, Church is now open for individual private prayer. Father has uploaded a plan for this on to the Church website so please take a look. He has also uploaded the Mass for the feast of Corpus Christi which was on the 11th June.
