The Ark
Welcome back for Autumn 2020!
We are so pleased to be seeing children back together in class. Details as to how we are making the environment safe for the children to return are outlined in the Risk Assessment for returning to school. These documents can be found on the noticeboard section, on the front page of the school website.
Please remember to visit this page if for any reason school or class is closed, or if your child cannot attend a school. There are some useful links further down the page detailing useful websites for learning.
I also regularly upload photos of what we have been doing in class and these may be good to help your child talk about their time in the Ark, so make sure you check out the photos below.

To start the day it is good to wake up the body and mind and so you can search online for free workouts by Joe Wicks. https://www.youtube.com/user/thebodycoach1
Before work, get your child's fingers ready for writing by exercising their fingers - a good way to do this is using scissors to cut, squeezing and squishing dough/blu tac and pretending to play the piano on a table.
