Hope Clouds
Hope Clouds
It is important to keep a sense of 'hope' during these tricky times.
This activity requires you to draw a hope cloud, or lots if you prefer.
Then, fill the cloud with your hopes for the future. What are your hopes for school, for your family, for the future?
A nice idea would be to create a family hope cloud.

New Banksy art appears!
New Banksy art appears!
Famous street art artist Banksy has created a new piece of art to pay tribute to NHS staff. The picture is on display in Southampton General Hospital. As you can see, the artwork shows a boy playsing with a toy nurse who is in a flying superhero pose. We certainly agree that our NHS workers are superheroes! The art will be sold to raise money for charity once lockdown is lifted.

Maybe you could be inspired and create your own Banksy style art to thank the NHS or other keyworkers?

Fantastic Fundraiser Captain Tom Moore!
Fantastic Fundraiser Captain Tom Moore!
I am sure you have all seen this in the news this week. 99 year old Tom Moore has raised millions (currently over £18 million!) for the NHS to celebrate his upcoming 100th birthday on April and to thank the NHS for looking after him when he was ill. He challenged himself to walk 100 laps of his garden and his initial fundraising target was £1000. It is fair to say he has well and truly surpassed his target! Well done Captain Tom Moore! What an inspiration to us all you are.
