Year 5

Good morning Year 5 and welcome to Summer Term! 🙂

We’re going to start each day with some handwriting practice to keep our writing fantastic, so every day there’ll be a different quotation to write. Next week you’ll be getting some special paper for this, but until then just use what you have.

Today’s quote is from St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226)

To remind yourself about who St. Francis was, click on the picture:

“Start by doing what’s necessary, then what’s possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”

Do you think Sophie would agree with this one? 🙂
