This has all been designed by your teachers from schools right across Sheffield. There is something for all key stages, things you can do on your own or with your fam- ily. We also need your help. There are lots of ways for you to get involved in creat- ing next Thursday’s Star and, maybe, you could take your cutting into school when it reopens to show your class or assembly.
