Hello Squirrels,
I hope you have had a lovely weekend!
Our learning behaviour of the week is: 'Push yourself' and our value is 'Thankfulness'
Our words of the week are 'cross-hatching' and 'shading'.
It was fantastic to see so many of you having a great time on Friday for our Victorian day. Thank you for all being so super and playing the part of Victorian children so well. It was a lovely day!
