Everyone wants to send him birthday cards for his 100th birthday so we thought it would be fun if Blue Coat participated. There are a few different ways to get your card sent to him. Follow this link to see the instructions. Remember that your parents must approve your participation if you are sending it directly to him or if you want to send it using social media.
Once you have designed your card just pop it in an envelope and send to:

Week 1: Competition of the week
Children across the UK are putting up homemade rainbow creations in their windows at home, in a bid to spread hope and positivity amid the coronavirus COVID-19 self-isolation period.
The rainbow trend has gone viral after schools across the country closed on Friday 20th to help stop the spread of the virus. A Facebook page has been set up called Believe In Rainbows, where families are posting pictures of their rainbow crafts.
There's a lot of imagination on display, with posters urging people to "be kind", "stay safe" and "be positive", along with rainbow balloons to celebrate birthdays, and rainbow caterpillars to symbolise that we'll emerge triumphant.
Our competition this week is to create a rainbow that represents our school. You can use any materials, images and words. Please take a photograph of it and email it to bluecoat@durhamlearning.net Make sure you display your rainbow on a window in your home.
