3rd Class Homework Miss Mangan 2 Week Plan 15th June – 26thth June
Dear Parent/s,
I hope everyone had a good week. As the restrictions have lifted, I am aware that everyone will be out and about visiting beaches and relatives etc and deservedly so. Below I have assigned another fortnightly plan of suggested activities. You can choose to do the activities at your own pace and as always a lot of these activities are extra, so please don’t feel under any pressure to complete everything. I am aware that it is June and the holidays are in sight, so please take out what you want from the work. The theme for this fortnight will be Under the Sea/The Ocean and a lot of the activities will be related to this theme in particular. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at ymangan@togherboys.com or on Microsoft Teams. Well done again for all your hard work, cooperation and dedication. I am so proud of all the boys and the effort they have been putting in on a daily basis.

History:
Letter from my future self.
Please don’t feel under any pressure to complete all of the work. We are on the count down to the summer holidays. I want to take this opportunity to thank all the boys and all the parents for your ongoing patience, dedication and hard work since September. Adapting to our new environment took its toll on all of us, but I could not be prouder of each and every boy and their families for the amount of work and effort that was put in. It was such a pleasure speaking to you all every week and I was blown away by how each parent always asked me about my own family and how we were all getting on. I could not have asked for a nicer and more obliging class of boys and parents. I am so upset that I didn’t get to finish out the year with the boys but I have no doubt that our paths will cross again before the end of their primary school years.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I wish the boys the very best moving forward on to 4th class.
Best wishes,
Miss Mangan
