School Closure Ideas

Dear Parents,

As we enter this time of uncertainty and enforced school closure, we are coming across all sorts of online home learning ideas through social media, as I am sure you might be too. Keep a regular eye on this blog, as we will post ideas as they come in, or feel free to add your own!

Here are some for starters:

Audible has placed a number of books online that are free to access. You can find them here:

The Book Trust website if full of reading ideas and recommendations:

Joe Wicks, the Body Coach, will be streaming a PE lesson each morning from Monday:

I also suggest that the boys keep a diary during these strange times. What a record it would be to look back on in years to come and show their children and grandchildren!

For some kitchen science, take a look at:
