5E | Aldwyn Primary School

Hello boys and girls! I hope that you are all enjoying the Whit holiday, even though the sunshine seems to have disappeared for a little while. Let's all hope it'll be back soon.

I'm really looking forward to hearing all about what you've been doing - perhaps you could send me a GMail.

Home Learning Grids

Please click the links below for the optional home learning activities. We recommend 2 activities per day.

In order for families and staff to take a break over Whit, there will be no home learning grid posted on 25.5.20 or 01.6.20.

Children who remain at home after 8th June 2020 will continue to be able to access the school learning grids on the class pages of the school website. We would like to thank you for your continuous support in helping your child to learn from home.

Please encourage your child to check their Gmail account for any messages from their teacher.
