Week beg 22^nd November 2021

A big thank you for all the wonderful costumes that you have sent in this week. The children are getting really excited about their play now. Still a long way to go until our opening performance and plenty to do!!

Remember to encourage your child to read for 15 – 20 mins daily and to record their reading in their diaries. We have stapled a list of recommended books for Year 6 children in the front of their diaries and we would like them to read some of these throughout the year. We have a lot of these texts in our class library so the children can borrow them from school or they might find some at their local library. We have asked them to tick off the books that that they read on the list.
