Hello Chaffinch Class!

I will hopefully be sending out an email to all of your parents but I just wanted to say a massive WELL DONE! for all your hard work this year. This school year has been very strange. We started the year coming into school and learning with our friends and then had to stay safe at home and learn with our families. You have all worked so hard on your home learning and it's been lovely to see some of the activities that you have completed during your time at home. I hope you enjoyed the home learning that was set and that you have a well deserved break during the Summer. It's been lovely to watch you all grow and I hope that you will settle well into Year One with Mrs Haines.

With only a few days left of term, I'd like to wish you a happy, safe and fun filled Summer holiday!

 

Have a lovely break!

 

Miss Fryer-Saxby

Welcome to Chaffinch class' home learning page! I hope you are all enjoying completing the activities that have been set. Well done to you all for getting stuck in and thank you to those of you that have uploaded pictures to Tapestry or sent me an email! I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine and managing to stay safe and well. 

 

As always, feel free to email me with any questions; to give an update on how you're getting on or even just to say hello! I will be checking my emails daily and will do my best to respond at a convenient time. My email address is cfryer-saxby@manor.reading.sch.uk. 

 

Happy home learning!
