Therefore your task this week is to do some research into Buckingham Palace and come up with five pieces of information or questions that you might want to include in your letter. Please do not write the letter. We will be doing this in class.Image result for buckingham palace


We will be using this information in lessons so you may find it easier to do this work on paper. 
Therefore although due on Friday - the sooner you can do it the better!
This means you can have it with you at your desk while you are writing.
