The teachers have loved seeing all the great work the children have been doing on SeeSaw and finding out how they're getting on. If you're having trouble accessing it, let us know. We'll be sending out codes for the extra activities for those who signed up for them over the next day or two.
We hope you enjoyed Mrs Paul's story about the mole today. Tomorrow Mrs Whitten reads us a charming story about animals and a star! Keep up with it all on our YouTube channel
Tomorrow is the feast day of St Peter Chanel, whose Order the Marists still run many schools across the world. St Peter himself was left all alone on a remote Pacific island to Christianise the indigenous people - maybe we can take some inspiration in our current situation of being isolated. His story is here.

Mental Health and Wellbeing
One of the most important ways to keep mentally healthy is to have routine and structure, and to maintain a healthy sleep pattern. Attached is quite a nice checklist from the Education Endowment Fund which you might find helpful.
“Let us try, if we can, to make the best use of this time: let us be generous. Let us help those in need in our neighbourhood. Let us look out for the loneliest people, perhaps by telephone or social networks. Let us pray to the Lord for those who are in difficulty .”
Pope Francis
