Good morning boys and girls!
I hope that you all managed to get some exercise yesterday. It’s to be sunny today so Stephen and I are going to go for a long walk and enjoy some sunshine. I wonder what we will see along the way? ☀
Did you manage to get on EPIC Books yesterday? I have signed everyone up to join as they have many amazing books free to read online. 👍🏼 It is really important that you all keep reading regularly – even reading a little bit everyday will be enough. 📚
Why not read to a brother or sister, to an adult at home or even read to your teddy! 😃
