Working From Home

Coronavirus - 2020
 

We are living through an incredibly strange time and there are a lot of changes happening around the world every day. Here at Thwaites, we want you to remember that you are not only an important part of our family but also a valuable part of the global community. Your education and wellbeing has never been more important than they are today.

We will be updating this page regularly to give you and your family some ideas of jobs and tasks that you can do whilst you are away from school; jobs that will keep you thinking but also allow you to spend time with your family.

We will be updating these on a weekly cycle so check back on a Monday to see the latest from your class teacher.

The home learning document includes a page for every year group in school - EYFS - Year 6.

Although these times are uncertain, one thing is for sure - Team Thwaites will continue to do all it can to support the children and families that call our little school 'home'.

Early Years Activities

Hello Everyone, 

It is hard to believe that this is the final week of term, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for all their hard work at home and at school and wish you all a safe and happy summer break.  This weeks activities have a reflective feel, looking back over time in 'Lockdown 2020'.  It would be fantastic, if when you are compiling your memory jar you let us know what some of those positive experiences have been for you and your families during this very unusual time, we will add them to the 'time capsule' we are hoping to put together in school.

Don't forget, you can send us photographs of what you are getting up to during the holidays, especially any unusual reading locations, via Class Dojo, Facebook or feel free to email me at angiehuddleston@thwaites.cumbria.sch.uk.

Have a fantastic holiday.

Mrs Huddleston
