We have exciting news to share!
To celebrate Health Week together as a school we have planned to use the video function within Teams to bring some Kirkshaws Live Lessons into the comfort of your own house. This is the first time we will be trying out this technology but our staff are very excited in sharing some learning experiences with our pupils and further increasing our communication with families.
The daily Live Lessons will take place at 10am every day next week from Tuesday 26th to Friday 29th and you can join by logging into Teams, entering the Kirkshaws School Team and clicking to “join” the meeting / lesson on the General Channel of the Team. Further instructions on how to access the Live Lesson can be found on the tutorial video attached below.
Every single pupil and their family are invited to join in the daily Live Lesson led by Mr Sharp with the details of the lessons and any resources you will need to join in detailed below. Look out for some of our other staff might joining too each day!
