Hi Everyone,

We hope you have all had a good week. The days are flying past and we can’t believe we are in the second week of June already.

Thanks to those who are in touch regularly. We love receiving your emails showing off all the wonderful work you are doing. Remember your tasks might appear in the ‘Star Workers’ section, have a look at the bottom of the page for this weeks. If you have any news share it too and send us a picture for the ‘News’ section.

Please keep in regular contact with us sharing your learning. You don’t have to wait until a Friday to get in touch- check in when you can.  The check in post is active all week and you can email us examples of your work at any time.

Burnside’s Got Talent is open! If you wish to participate you can send a video of you doing something really cool to the school twitter page. We will then share them. Full details are on the app. We look forward to seeing how creative and talented you all are.
