Mason is our star of the week for being a super kind friend and engaging his friends in play when he can see they are upset. You are a fantastic friend Mason. Well done. 

We have taken part in lots of really fun activities today, celebrating WBD. We have read stories, sang songs, used our senses to explore food and we have created our own poems. Well done everyone.

A huge well done to all of the children in 1A who came dressed as a word or their favourite book character today. Keep your eyes peeled for photos of what we get up to today.
