Good afternoon everyone!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

Here are some spring craft activity ideas for you to try! Most of these can be made with things you may find around the house such as cereal boxes or milk cartons.

If you have been doing your daily exercise outside why not go on a senses hunt! What can you see, smell, hear, touch or taste? I have attached a worksheet you can use or you can discuss your findings with someone!

Home Learning

We will be posting activities for our learning community on this school and nursery blog from Monday 23.3.20.  There will be a mixture of written, online and practical activities.

Try to keep a routine going in the house, with specific learning times and breaks.  Pupils can be learning practical skills at home too, such as preparing snacks, helping in the garden, sorting the laundry etc.  

Follow us on twitter, (Chapelgreen_PS) as we will be following sites that will provide additional activities and daily challenges.

Don’t forget to get exercise in too!  Lots of opportunities will be offered through the tv and other sites. 

We are always hopeful that this situation will resolve sooner and we can get back to having everyone at school.  Fingers crossed! 

The Chapelgreen Team
