Good afternoon everyone. What a beautiful day it is today. I hope you are all staying safe in the sun and wearing your sunscreen. One of my favourite books when I was small was James and the Giant Peach. There is a new online version which has made me laugh constantly while watching it. You may even recognise some of the famous faces who have speaking parts on it. Here is chapter 1… enjoy… Mrs B x

Sometimes we just need to stop…. and breathe…

For all of us animal lovers here’s a story about a wee dog who feels different. He doesn’t realise that being different is actually a good thing…just ask me and Miss McQueen !
