Year 3
Week 2
We hope that you are all okay and that you are able to work through some of our schedule for the week. Remember this is only a guide. Each family may have different ways of approaching our suggested learning. The priority is the well being of you and your family. Home schooling will feel different in lots of ways. Make sure that you try to work but also take a break and understand that parents are trying to help you. Below you can find this week's timetable. We will try to check in and look at the work that you do on Seesaw. This comes with our warmest wishes.

A Parent's Guide to Support Children at Home with APPs
Dear Parents and Carers,
Thank you so much for supporting the class during their mass this week when the theme was rocks. The children thoroughly enjoyed performing 'Jesus is the Rock' and we hope that you enjoyed viewing their wonderful work in class afterwards. If you couldn't join us, we shared your child's work with staff. All were rewarded for their hard work and efforts. Look out for the next homework letter, as we are making plans to do some landscape architecture for our next around the world day. The country studied will be on Japan. We will need enough shoe box lids for each child so please do try to send in any you may have.
Kind regards,
Year Three Staff
