 The children’s school reports were sent home today. I hope you enjoy reading about all of the fantastic progress the children have been making this year. If you have any questions or would like to discuss anything further, please do not hesitate to contact me — I am always happy to arrange a conversation. Next Thursday we will be celebrating World Book Day in school. We are very excited to welcome a visiting poet, who will be working with the children during the day to inspire creativity and a love of reading and writing. Children are also invited to come to school dressed as their favourite book character. Costumes do not need to be elaborate — simple, creative ideas are absolutely welcome.
