Amazing Homework Gallery

As well as working hard at home and continuing their learning via Seesaw and Tapestry, some of our pupils have gone the extra mile and have made fantastic video presentations and kind gestures. You could also get creative and make a card or write a letter to someone you are grateful to to say thank you, make a video or a collage.
