See you in the morning! :)
Dear Eagle Class of September 2020,
The return to school may seem a long way ahead but it will soon be here!
It certainly will have been an unusual transition from year 5 into year 6 for you, but we know that together we will all be okay. Your previous teachers have already told us what creative, resilient young people you are.
Our classroom isn't ready yet, but as soon as it is I will add some photos for you.
In the meantime have a lovely summer, recharge your batteries and brains!
We are looking forward to seeing you all in September.
Have fun, from,
Mrs Wambeek and the teachers in Eagles.
Nearly ready!
