Good morning, this is the news.

Firstly, and  most importantly, I hope you’re all well. I have received some great project work from you and can’t wait to receive more in the coming days. 

I have also also seen some incredible craftwork some have carried out off their own bat (🦇) and I was so impressed. I know you’re all very limited in what you can and can’t do but if you are getting out with your family perhaps you could take and upload some pictures of Rostrevor. In truth I miss the class and the chat and laughter. I miss the news and given the time of year, the excitement of the approaching local league, table-tennis tournament, the big debate, the school trip, the walks up to the Fiddlers’ Green for a picnic, sport’s practice in the meadow, football in the meadow etc etc. I guess you could say I miss the whole scene. A few photos uploaded to Classdojo would help. I’ll probably view them with tears in my eyes 👀! That would be the onion!!!

I am trying to upload your username and password details for you and your parents for Classdojo so I’m dying to hear from you about all the news.

Please, please don’t stress about the school work. Obviously it is important that you do keep it ticking over but of equal importance is that we care for each other at this time. Your parents need you to cooperate and help especially if you have younger brothers or sisters. You’re in a great position to explain and help with their schoolwork. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to do things you normally wouldn’t do. I’d love to see examples of these posted and perhaps if you do make something you could submit the instructions for others to try it! Why, just the other day I boiled an egg 🥚. Instructions to follow.

So keep safe and I’ll post further news in the next couple of days. Keep up the prayers and good work.
