Thank you to Year 5 for sharing books with us. We enjoyed listening to stories that you read.

Year 6 had a busy day today focussing on books and reading. We began the day looking at our various costumes before working on the book picture quiz around school. After that we joined Year 2 to share our favourite books with them. In the afternoon we combined reading with PE when we completed our…

What an exciting World Book Day we have had! Our costumes were amazing. Can you recognise any characters from the class photo? We started the day hearing all about the first books and when they were published. We then designed a footprint showing our favourite books to display in school to lead…

This afternoon, Year 3 were looking for woodlice in the school grounds. We looked in lots of areas - behind the outdoor classroom, in the garden, around the climbing frame and we recorded our findings in a table.
