Reading Folders and Poetry Folders
Please ensure that children have both their reading folders and poetry folders at school on Monday. Some children may have reading folders already in their tote trays but all children will need to return their poem folders please.

We are looking forward to seeing the children on Monday and hearing all about their holidays. Hope you have all enjoyed a bit of down time over the last two weeks with your gorgeous children.
