?Week 10 02/06-05/06Hello everyone ? We hope everyone is keeping healthy and safe and that you all had a lovely bank holiday weekend and got to enjoy the fantastic weather. Over the next few weeks, we will be learning about Space. We are sending out resources and as always, use as many or as few as you like. You many have information at home already which you can use. This week will be planning and research and next week you can work on your project. There was exciting Space news at the weekend where NASA and Space X successfully launched two astronauts Douglas Hurley and Robert Behnken from the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida America on Saturday 30th May. We would recommend looking up this rocket launch. It is fascinating to watch. (see below)As always, these are guidelines, so all we ask is for you is to do your best. We want you to enjoy this beautiful weather as much as you can, so spend lots of time and have fun outside in the fresh air.Orlaith, Mary & Ronan ? MondayBank Holiday Monday ?
