Dear Parents,
We have compiled some activities for your children and family to take part in while at home, making up our Taskmaster Challenges. The children can take part i as many of them as they like! It is just something fun to do while schools are closed and we are in lock down.
Attached to this email is the list of challenges for each day. You can submit your child’s entry either by emailing a picture or video to taskmaster@thamesviewjunior.com, or tagging @thamesviewj on Twitter.
I can not wait to see them!
