Reminder: KS1 Olympic & Famous People Homework Project

Following the letter that was given out to the children earlier in the term, we would like to remind you that in Key Stage 1 (Years 1&2) we have asked the pupils to choose from the topic of the ‘Olympics’ or ‘Famous People’, for their project. The children are free to be as creative as they wish.
The finished project should be handed in by the 1st June 2012.
It is expected that the children should spend approximately 45 minutes on their project each week. A prize will be awarded to the best project.
