Welcome back Year 7! We hope you have had a lovely Christmas
                     and a nice break ☺

  For the next few lessons you will be working from home. You
    made great progress with your French last term and it is
    important that you aim to progress through the learning
               objectives for the next few lessons.

    We recognize that remote learning takes a great deal of
independence and resilience. Independent study skills are really
valuable skills to develop so follow the instructions carefully and
use your language learning skills that you have been developing
                         since September.

 Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to email
your teacher, we are here to help! We will be giving you feedback
 on your work - please ensure all written work is completed to a
  high standard in your exercise books which we will check on
                       return to school ☺
