Here are some suggested activities for week beginning 18th May. Parents, please feel free to email me and let me know how your children are getting on with their learning. Please also email me if you have any questions.
This week we are going to learn about the super heroes that keep us safe while we are at the seaside. Mrs Blackmore enjoyed her walk to Horton lifeboat station where she interviewed one of the life boat crew from a safe distance of course!

Talk to your family about your opinions and ask them the same question.
