Hello all my lovely girls !
This is our last week of work and google classroom. A video has gone up on the school website to say goodbye to you all. It is such a pity we didn’t have the last few months to enjoy, our school play and confirmation at the end of the year. But we will have a graduation ceremony when we get back in September/October. And I can’t wait to enjoy that time with you all.
For our last google classroom, we will do our usual work but I would like to have a chat with you all and talk about what you will miss most about primary school. So think of a few memories you would like to share.
The password is warrenmount. We will be going over English spellings and their meanings. We will correct Mental Maths week 28. We will also look at Irish spellings too, so please have that work ready on Wednesday thank you.
Here is some work for the week ahead.
