Dear Chestnuts,

We have reached our final few days together, let's make them amazing! 

Your learning for Monday and Tuesday is being planned by your new teachers, Mrs Jacob and Mrs Gibb. Please look at the Hawthorns section of the website for this. Wednesday is pirate day and there is a separate plan for this. Remember that you can dress up as a pirate for this day. Thursday is a day for finishing off and winding down ready for the summer.

We are incredibly proud of how you have all adjusted and coped with the challenges of the past few months. You are a fantastic class and we have loved teaching you. We hope you all have a wonderful summer and we look forward to seeing you when you return in September as a Hawthorn!

Best wishes

Miss Tucker and Mrs Newby
