Year 3 – Monday 6th April – Easter Holiday

Happy Easter Holidays Year 3

Thank you for making all your teachers smile on Friday when we got to see you in our zoom meeting. We will arrange another date after the Easter break. We hope you had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the sunshine in you gardens or homes. 

As the next two weeks are officially the Easter Holidays we hope that you are ready for a bit of a break from school work and can enjoy having a holiday at home.  As Mr Applegate said in his video newsletter last week, we won’t be publishing formal learning tasks over the Easter holidays. You can still access TTRock Stars and other links you can find here.

You are then free to choose when and how to try the activities out; you might want to do one a day or perhaps just pick one or two that you like the look of.  Please remember these are only suggestions and you might have other wonderful ideas or just need a little downtime.  There are so many wonderful resources out there that you might not have got round to trying if you have been following our activity schedule closely, so please take the time to try something new. 

We would like to take this opportunity to say how much we appreciate your patience and kind thoughts and also the time and hard work you have been putting in to continuing our work in our absence. We wish you and your families our very best wishes for a safe and Happy Easter together. 

Best wishes,

From the Year 3 Team
