It’s Friday and we’ve got a lot to talk about! First of all, Ms. Jacobs’ has put together a detailed video on how to enter the John Harvard Library summer reading competition.

Please watch this video here for all the details you need.

Secondly, you will soon find out who your new year 6 classes/teacher will be. Keep an eye and ear out for details on this. Some of you will be going back to school for a few weeks in your new year 6 groups. This is super exciting. The virtual school will continue on and you will be doing the work provided by us with your classes. Some of you will remain at home where you will continue to do the virtual schoolwork alongside everyone else. We will be making calls next week to check in with you. We have missed hearing your voices and can’t wait to do this.

I think that’s it for now. Have a brilliant weekend and speak to you all soon!

The Year 5 Team.
