Hi Everyone!!
I decided to set up a PRIVATE Instagram account specifically for my 5th and 6th Class and their parents. The account is strictly private and you will have to request to follow. I will NOT follow you back as I think you all need your privacy! Its just another way to reach out to you all. I've uploaded some ideas and tips on the account, including a great Dance, which no doubt you will have seen on Tic Tok.

Please look at the Padlets I've uploaded the links on the Blog - they are filled with websites and resources for you. I think the Answers one is good!!! I will add to this over time.
