It’s lovely to be back in school and seeing lots of children from our class. I knew some of you are still not able to come back yet, but you are definitely in my thoughts. I hope you are all well and keeping yourselves safe. I am still very pleased when I receive an email of how you are getting on, so please keep them coming. If you haven’t yet sent one, I wold love to hear from you and see what you have been doing.
