Hello Rowan and welcome to your first week of Home Learning!
 
It might take you a bit to get into a routine but please remember that whilst school is closed you are still expected to complete the tasks we set each week. Some tasks might be completing activities in the work book we sent home with you and other tasks will involve working online. Each Monday we will set the activities on here for you. 
It might be an idea to create your own Home Learning timetable. Make sure you also include creative activities such as arts and crafts, cooking and playing games! If you have any problems children, please contact us on our school360 email addresses. Work through the activities slowly. If you complete them then check out the 'Home Learning Resources' page. On here you will find a selection of educational websites. If you find any good ones, send us an email and we will add it to the list. 
 
From today, Joe Wicks (The Body Coach) is doing a live work out on Youtube everyday at 9am for 30 minutes for you to do at home. Exercise is an amazing tool to help you feel happier, more energised and more optimistic. You don't need any equipment - just tune in to his Youtube channel at 9am. 
 
The activities we would like you to complete this week are listed below. We have also attached a printable version for you.
