I can’t believe it’s Wednesday already! I hope you’re all having a good week so far. It’s been really lovely checking in with you and receiving pictures of some of the activities you’ve been completing at home.
Remember this is just a guide to help keep you all busy, there is no pressure or expectation for all tasks to be completed. It’s ok to have slower days and prioritizing things like family time, play, love and relaxing is more important than ticking off a checklist of work.
Before we get started here is a lovely video made by Class 2 talking about what they’re looking forward to when they return to school.
Kayden even gives Class 1 a shout out! Enjoy!

1-1.30 pm: Fine Motor Skills
One of the really important aspects of our daily school life is play. These play based experiences help us make sense of the world around us and also assist in our development of fine and gross motor skills which impacts on our cognitive activity and even our pencil grip etc.
I have attached a suggested activity you could try at home to help develop these skills.

Go with Mr Corrigan on a tour of a Scottish Castle. What an interesting video to upload Mr Corrigan, thank you for this!

At the end of each day, we will send you stories to listen to/read. Some of these will be read by your lovely St. Albert’s teachers, others might be by famous authors. To get ready for the story:
- Get a snack and a drink
- Get somewhere comfy – on cushions/sofa/bed, under a blanket
- Get one of your parents or a brother/sister to listen with you
Here are today’s stories:

Good afternoon everybody.
I hope you are all well. I just wanted to write you a message to send you my love and let you all know that I am missing you. I was just looking at your blog posts and it is so nice to see all the lovely pictures of your gorgeous faces!
When school goes back I am looking forward to seeing all of my St. Albert’s family again, and seeing all of your beautiful smiles.
Sending you all lots of love,
Mrs Hunter-Andreuccetti.
