Book Week Readathon
As part of our Viking topic, primary 4 have decided to host an enterprise afternoon in order to raise funds for a Viking Workshop. This has been a very popular workshop in previous years and the children have thoroughly enjoyed an active approach to learning about Viking life.
On Friday 8th March 2013, as it is Book Week, the children will be allowed to bring their pyjamas and a copy of their favourite bedtime story. Children will share stories with each other and take part in a range of Book Week activities.
Please pay £1 to wear your pyjamas and help us raise funds for our Viking afternoon.
Thank you for your continued support,
