https://padlet.com/endaconnolly33/rio63wiqefo42qr0 Greetings 3rd Class! How are you all doing this week? We really hope that this finds you all well and happy. It can be difficult to get school work done these days especially with the nice weather, so well done to you all on making such a huge effort! Every little helps. Things like reading books for enjoyment and trying to get those Times Tables off by heart are pretty important in 3rd Class! We have been getting lots of emails from you and it has been so lovely to see pictures of your work, drawings, projects and all the different activities that you have been getting up to. If you haven't had the chance to email us yet we encourage you to do so, it is a great way to stay in touch. We are missing you and all the fun that we should be having in school this time of year.
