Good morning Oak Class!

I hope that you have all had a lovely weekend. Today is known to many as ‘Star Wars Day’ so May the 4^th be with you! J

On Friday, we have a Bank Holiday, so this week, you will only be allocated school work from Monday - Thursday. This to celebrate the 75^th anniversary of VE Day.

Our learning grid for this week can be found via the ‘School Spider’ app or on our school website (on our class page).
