Homework
We had some amazing homework entries for the last half term - knitted hot water bottle covers, embroidery samples and paintings inspired by The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and some lovely story writing.
I look forward to seeing all our homework projects for this half term and choosing another successful Homework Champion.
Great effort with our homework so far this year. Last term, we had some wonderful models of Anglo Saxon houses and information leaflets about life in Anglo Saxon times.
I look forward to seeing all your creative homework projects and choosing a Homework Champion at the end of this half term.
