​Dear parents,
You all have another week of home-learning behind you. Well done and thank you to all our families who are meeting new challenges with such good humour and resilience! I hope that everyone continues to stay safe physically and emotionally; please remember that we are here to support if you need us and can signpost you towards agencies offering more specialist services if required.

Please see a letter from Mrs Underwood attached and be assured that we are all  working together to ensure the best possible care and education for our pupils, whatever the circumstances. 

Your class teachers will be sending out the work for next week shortly. We will be beginning a new topic of Under The Sea. Please encourage your children to have a go at some of the fun, wider curriculum opportunities included on the topic webs and to send photos and work to their teachers who would love to see them! Live lessons which may link well with this topic may be found here: https://www.southtawton.co.uk/school-news/live-lessons-linking-with-under-the-sea-topic 

Thank you to everyone who have sent in pictures to show how you are commemorating VE day. Please keep them coming. The gallery can be viewed here: https://www.southtawton.co.uk/school-news/ve-day-what-lovely-preparations-so-far 

All the news from the week can be seen in the lovely class blogs. Some of my favourites from the week are Year 4's Star Wars: https://www.southtawton.co.uk/year-4/may-the-fourth-be-with-you, Year 2's Marvellous Monday https://www.southtawton.co.uk/year-2/its-marvellous-monday, and Year R's Billy Goat's Gruff: https://www.southtawton.co.uk/year-r/3-pigs-and-3-billy-goats-gruff 

I hope you enjoy another lovely, sunny bank holiday weekend,

Very best wishes,
Sarah Marvin
