Hello Class 5, I hope you have all had a good Monday! Here are the suggested tasks for Tuesday: Tuesday 14th July I also have this message for you from Mrs Riegler: Exciting News! How would you like to see your work in a  real life exhibition ?  Well now is your chance.  Gloucester Museum  are running a competition ( with prizes ) on the theme of  Life In Lockdown .  You can draw, paint, make a collage or create a video to show how you will remember your time in lockdown in the future.  You can think about the good things and the not so good things you have experienced, new skills you have learnt, ways you have adapted.  It would be absolutely fantastic to have work from Holy Apostles' in the exhibition.  Here is the link to the letter  that has been sent out today with further details of  how to enter .  Don't forget to send us a copy of your entries too.  Even if you aren't selected, we can have our own lockdown memories exhibition in school.  Go on, get creative!  Good L

We may not be able to do that this year, but it doesn't mean we can't have some sports day fun. Instead, this year we will be having a Virtual Sports Day. There are 5 challenges for you to complete to win house points for your house. For all the details, please click here . The competition starts now! You have until Wednesday 16th July to get your scores in. Please email them to the schools Admin email account, with the Subject ' Virtual Sports Day' and your name child's name and year.
