Hello everyone,
It's Miss Dawes here - I am the new Falcons class teacher. I have just uploaded some videos for you to watch to get to know me, your new classroom and hopefully for us to learn a little bit about each other! I am very excited for September.
Please send any responses to the homelearning@monks.org.uk email address so I can read through them. If you would rather save anything until we meet each other in September, that is also fine.
Looking forward to learning lots about you all!
Miss Dawes
