Half-term Home Learning
Because this week is half-term, we’re taking a break from the usual daily home learning tasks (just like we did at Easter). Instead, we’ve prepared a menu of home learning activities that you might want to dip into this week – these are optional only, but you might want to encourage your child to have a go at being a quiz master, doing some up-cycling, presenting a cookery masterclass or any of the other activities.
Whatever you decide to do, we hope you have a happy and healthy half-term.

Can you write the correct words into the gaps?

Symbols of happiness
The Sunflowers is one of the most popular paintings in the National Gallery and it was the picture that Van Gogh was most proud of.
Why sunflowers?
Sunflowers had a special significance for Van Gogh. He made seven versions of them.
Yellow, for him, was a symbol of happiness.
