Easter Holiday

Happy Easter!

We hope you are all keeping well and busy! Thank you for sending us updates on what you’ve been doing at home, We’ve loved seeing photos of you and hearing about what you’ve been doing. Please keep sending them to Evidence.Me. A guide to how to upload photographs and information is available here: http://help.evidence.me/parent-share/help-for-parents/
We also have a new email address so you can keep in contact with us: yr@scarcroft.southbank.academy

 

We’ve not posted any new literacy and numeracy activities for the next two weeks but we wanted to share some ideas to keep you busy:

 

Competition Time

Why not take part in our whole school competition to create piece of art inspired by Spring. You can use whatever media you like, for example, paint, playdough, felt pen, junk modelling, pencil crayon. You might be inspired by the flowers and green shoots appearing or the baby animals we traditionally associate with this time of year: chicks, lambs and bunnies - it’s up to you!

Just take a photograph of your creation, email it to: yr@scarcroft.southbank.academy by Sunday 19th April and put ‘competition’ and your year group in the subject.  Parents and carers, please add a line in the email saying we have permission to put the pictures on the website and then we can upload some of them.
