Good morning (soon to be) Year 4s,
Over the summer holiday, myself and Mr Skinner would like you to research your new classes that you will be in next year.
Just a quick reminder, if your were in Spetses you will be in Ithaca; if you were in Zakynthos, you will now be in Symi.
Have a lovely summer holiday.
