Bore Da Pawb!
It has been a lovely week this week and I hope you have been enjoying the sunshine!
Please find attached the wb 27.04.20 Home Learning Grid for you to have access to. Last week we looked at ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’, this week is all about a new story called ‘The Cautious Caterpillar’. It is a new story for me and I have enjoyed reading it. So, I hope you like it too.
Again, please pick and choose activities you and your children feel comfortable doing. Adapt any of these activities to suit your child’s needs and interests. In these times all I want is for your children to be safe, happy and healthy.
I really enjoy hearing and seeing what you’re doing!
I am forward thinking to next week and I will be doing an activity with broad beans. You have any please get them out ready, however, it is not essential.
I hope you are able to enjoy some of the activities this week.
Have a great week, keep in touch.
Many thanks again!

News: Headteacher Update
Dear Parents and Carers,
I hope you are keeping safe and well during these challenging times and that you managed to have a good rest over the Easter break. Our staff continue to do an excellent job in the Holywell Hub, supporting the children of key workers. On behalf of everyone, I wish to thank them, for their continued commitment and dedication.
As you will also be aware, staff have been keeping in touch with you all, using a range of formats; seesaw, purple mash and now Google classroom in Years 5 and 6. I thank you again, on behalf of all staff, for continuing to support your children with the work that is being set, on a weekly basis. Please do not feel ‘under pressure’ to complete all tasks. It is far more important that children do ‘some activities’ each day and then have time to be active, do jigsaws, read a book, play board games and participate in any kind of other ‘fun’ activities. They will still be learning from all of these experiences and a balance of work and play ensures everyone’s ‘well- being.’
In school, our day is ‘divided up’ into opportunities to learn in a variety of ways, both indoors and outdoors and sometimes the best type of learning does not involve writing anything down, but is simply about exploring nature or learning a new skill. All these activities, ensure that children continue to learn and develop into happy and healthy individuals.
Please look out for a special post, over the next few days, that the staff have been working on, which we hope will make you all smile. They are always thinking of you all and looking for ways to ‘keep in touch.’ A HUGE thank you to them all for participating in this and to Miss Owen who has spent many hours coordinating all their efforts. Take care everyone and stay safe.

Class 3: Google classroom
Good Afternoon Class 3.
I hope you have all had a lovely Easter with your family and taken advantage of the beautiful weather.
Thank you to everybody who has completed the tasks I set prior to Easter. I have enjoyed reading your work and I hope you have enjoyed completing them. Please don’t get yourself upset or worry about any work, do what you can but my priority is you staying safe and being happy.
I myself have been busy over Easter learning how to cook new cakes and meals, play new games and having fun in the garden with my family. I would love to hear how you have been keeping busy. I have also been learning about new ways to connect with you, and am very excited to introduce you to google classroom. I would like all pupils in Class 3 to log onto their Hwb account and open an email which will have an invite to join Class 3 Google Classroom. I will be using this platform to send activities and explore different ways for you to learn. You will find a new Home Learning Grid which will have a mixture of activities to complete.
I will send you further information via Hwb emails to help open google classroom so please remember to look.
Stay Safe and take care!
Regards
Mrs Roberts
