Summer Projects

As we are soon breaking up for Summer there is no homework this week .

Here are some projects you may wish to complete over the Summer break and bring them to
school in August to discuss with your new teacher.

We recommend picking 3 or 4 to complete to a high standard.

We hope you have a wonderful break and look forward to hearing about it in August!

Miss Kniveton and Mr Millican
