Buenos dias, Year 3! How was your weekend? Welcome back to our second week of home learning. We hope you’re ready to get started!

Here is today's timetable:

Let’s start by exploring this winter painting by Utagawa Hiroshige. It’s called Snow Scene at the Shrine of Benzaiten. You would need to travel all the way to Tokyo in Japan to see this shrine!

What do you see, think and wonder?
