Week Commencing 15/06/2020

Monday 15th June

Challenge for the week:

This week's challenge is to learn a phrase in another language. Pick a language you've never even considered before, think of a message of support for your friends or the wider Norwich School community. Film your message and send it in. Let's see how many different languages we can support each other in!

Thank you to Charlie Hutchinson for his excellent video showing us what he learned about bees and helping a couple out in the process!

Also, see below, Alice Strike has been taking some gorgeous photos of flowers in her back garden!
