Thank-you so much for the effort you all made with the children’s costumes for World Book Day - they all look fabulous and we have had a great day filled with sharing stories and talking about books. The children have also met with their Year 6 buddies and shared their books with them - this was just beautiful to see and I must say a huge thank-you to Year 6. Year 6 were so lovely with Year 1 and they children loved sharing their books with the older children. Miss Slater and I have agreed that we must do this sort of thing more often.
