GOLDFINCH
Welcome to
GOLDFINCH CLASS
SCHOOL CLOSURE
Due to the current situation, I have created learning packs for Goldfinch class along with a work book and some other things*. These can be found below along with some other useful resources and ideas of things to keep you occupied over the coming weeks. There are lots of fun activities/ideas to keep yourselves active which aren't solely school/curriculum learning based.
As it is term time, it is expected that children complete the set work. I have included a blank timetable, which could be used to create a daily timetable/routine. Most importantly, enjoy spending time together as a family and keep yourselves safe and well. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

*Those children that are away and have not received a pack, I will/have arranged for them to be posted through your letterbox.
