Schools continue to be creative during Covid-19 lockdown
We are continuing to shine a spotlight on how our schools are keeping in touch with their pupils during the coronavirus lockdown and the activities they're coming up with to keep everyone motivated through this challenging time.
If you missed the last two features, you'll find them at the links below:

Staff at Briar Hill Infant School and St Margaret’s Junior School, who are joined in a federation, sent these videos to let their children know how much they are missing them and to remind them of their vision to: ‘Flourish as a family, love to learn, make memories, shine!’
They’ve also been keeping in touch with their children and families with regular phone calls, through year group emails and weekly home learning videos and tasks on their website.

Southam College Sunflower Challenge
With the sun shining, lots of people have taken to enjoying more time in the garden during the coronavirus pandemic, so it's great to see Southam College encouraging more of us to get green-fingered with their Sunflower Challenge.
Packets of giant sunflower seeds were left on the front fence of the school entrance inviting people to plant these and watch them grow at home. They will be keeping everyone updated with the flowers they've planted in school and invited anyone who planted some seeds to email in their pictures, to see who has the most impressive blooms!
