Summer Diaries
What an absolute joy to read through the wonderful summer diaries! From vibrant drawings and hand-drawn maps to precious keepsakes, beautifully detailed writing, and stories of amazing adventures, the effort and creativity on display have been truly inspiring. Huge congratulations to all of our young authors for capturing their summer memories so brilliantly—keep up that fantastic passion for writing and exploring.

A little reminder that reading books will come home/changed on Mondays. In school children will have three guided reading sessions focusing on Decoding, Prosody and Comprehension. These books should be read at least 3 times at home through out the week. You can also access the reading book online using the E- Collins log in, if you need any help with this please ask the class teacher.

The library will be able to supply age appropriate reading books rather than specific school reading scheme (book bands).
Additionally, if you are a library member you are also able to access the free e-library where children can read books from Borrow Box.
