A big thank you to everyone who provided costumes and props for your children on World Book Day.

Take a look at all our fantastic costumes!!

On World Book Day we were so lucky to take part in a Reading Escape Room! Year 3, 4, 5 and 6 pupils had to escape Crow Castle by working in teams and taking a journey through the rooms via the magic of books.
