Good Morning Y5/6 Foxes and welcome to the last week of term - you've made it! This week we have the final week of work but lots of fun activities for your creative challenges too. Don't forget to watch the video below. It's a last goodbye to our Y6s too.
I have also attached a timetable you might like to use to help you with your learning. This is to give you an idea of what learning will look like in school.
You will find activites to do on PurpleMash, Mathletics as well as ones to do in your homelearning books.
