Hello everyone

Hello everyone,

We wish all our mum's a very Happy Mothers Day. Last week the children really enjoyed making wrapping paper for the daffodil's they had grown along with the threading of flowers and hearts for their mum's. 

The weather this weekend has been beautfiul, a perfect opportunity to get out in to the garden for some fresh air and see all the wonderful spring bulbs flowering. 

We are all thinking of our families and community  at this difficult time and are always around for support. 

We have thought of some challenges you might like to do throughout the week and we would love to see some photos of what you have been up to. Please email them to j.nineham@princeofwales.dorset.sch.uk.
