What a super World Book Day it has been! The imagination and creativity with all the costumes has been outstanding so a huge thank you to the grown ups who have helped.

To start our new English topic this term, we took part in an exciting hook activity. We followed clues hidden around the school hall to help us work out what our new class story would be. The clues included pink paper, a builder’s hat, straw, sticks, the number 3 and bricks. These clues got us thinking carefully and sharing our ideas with each other.
