Hi everyone,

As we are now entering the final school month of the year we are going to begin to reduce the work, focusing only on English and maths over the next couple of weeks so that you can go out and enjoy the lovely weather!

As always you can contact me at mskennystjosephsgorey@gmail.com  if you have any questions or need any extra help.

Ms.Kenny
