Hello Orange Class!
Usually at this time of year, we'd hold a Meet the Teacher meeting at school. But under the current circumstances we can't do that. So, instead, we have made a video that goes over some of the things we're getting up to as well as an update on how the children are doing!
Have a great week!
Tom
