Hello everyone
We hope you are all keeping well and staying safe.
It’s been a strange couple of weeks not being able to do those everyday things that we take for granted yet now having the time to enjoy doing other things with our families. We have loved receiving your emails and seeing photos of some of the things you have been doing – enjoying family bike rides, building models, baking, doing the daily Joe Wicks workout to name but a few.
During the first two weeks of the school closure, we have been keen not to overload the children or yourselves with tasks to do at home. As we said in our message a few days ago, we know that many of you will be working from home whilst trying to care for your families at the same time – the last thing we want to do is create added stress or pressure by sending out lots of home learning tasks. The most important thing is for all of our children to feel safe, have time to play, to have fun and, above all, to feel loved.
For the next two weeks – what would have been the Easter holiday period – we have uploaded an Easter Home Learning Pack. There’s lots of activities to get crafty and creative with, while learning about the Easter story at the same time. Click on the links below to download the booklets.
Easter Home Learning Pack
Easter Home Learning Pack – editable Word version if children want to type into it.
Class teachers may also be uploading Easter-themed ideas and phonics / times tables activities, so children can continue with these daily routines if they wish, but there is no expectation for teachers to do this nor for children to complete the activities.
Please just look after yourselves and enjoy this time together. If you need support in any way, please do not hesitate to contact me on head@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk
Finally, and seeing as I have enjoyed hearing what many of you have been doing, I thought I’d share this photo with you of what I’ve been up to today. Don’t worry it’s not permanent!
Take care
Mrs Johnson
