Welcome back!
We have uploaded a range of different activities this week. Please feel free to complete these tasks in whichever order you wish and remember to do what you can – we do not expect you to complete every single task. If you need any help or clarification on anything please feel free to email us or post on Teams. Let’s try to have a virtual Team Talk every Wednesday at 1:30pm – 2:00pm.
