Home learning 13th July
Dear Parents and Carers
It is hard to believe this is our last week home learning. It has been a very strange end of the school year and one that we did not expect.
I hope that you all well and we are thinking of you all. Please don’t forget to email me: stmartindeporres@stm.lourdesmac.org.uk
I hope that you all have a lovely ‘summer holiday’ and come back feeling refreshed and excited to go into Year 4.
I’m looking forward to seeing you all again in September (hopefully!)
Stay safe
Mrs Jones
Topic
Drawing on all of your learning this term, write your own acrostic poem linked to our Rainforest topic. You could do one for the word ‘RAINFOREST’ or for a different word from the topic if you wish. There is an example below for you to look at.

RE:
This week we celebrate the feast day of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, the patron saint of our parish. Please watch this video below with your children to explain a little about where Mount Carmel is and what is has to do with Our Lady. There is also a craft idea for you to do with your family to help celebrate this important feast day for our parish and schools.
