Like TF2 I doubt if any teacher will have time to mark the work done at home, as they'll be too busy once things are back to normal. It's for the benefit of your children, but it's voluntary, so nobody has to do it. And if it's all revision anyway then not quite so urgent. All new learning will be done when school gets back to normal

I hope you're coping all right Wannabe and manage to get a food delivery soon

Our school has said the well being of the children is the most important. I know the work won’t get marked. They have encouraged reading for enjoyment, writing stories and poetry for fun- raps etc. I messaged my gdd yesterday and we were making acrostic poems of her favourite things. She is 6 and it was good fun for us both....and I read stories to her. I was pretty impressed as there are over 300 miles between us. I certainly wouldn’t worry about the school work....in every thing that is happening right now - that should be way down the list of priorities. Stay safe 👍

Thank you so much. Appreciate all the help.

I'm actually here to ask for a huge favour from anyone that needs to go to a pharmacy/a supermarket with a pharmacy in. ONLY if you're going for yourself. I don't want anyone to go out their way or put themselves at risk. But if anyone is going and could look for something for me (I will send the cost and the postage if it's there) I'd really appreciate it. BUT only if you're out for yourself. Hope that makes sense. We've had a dosage change in something (it's over the counter in the pharmacy) and I can't get it locally and don't have enough until their order comes in. It's not life threatening though. I feel so bad posting this maybe I'll delete it

Today's been spent at the table doing some crafting and school stuff. We did keep popping into the garden for a 'break' but other than that we havent really done much.

Hope you're all staying safe x
