Welcome back to Term 3 and I hope that 2017 is a happy, healthy year for us all.

This week, we have launched straight into our Burns’ poem, ‘To a Mouse’, in preparation for the Burns’ competition on Friday 27th January. If your child is one of the 3 finalists chosen from the class, you will be invited to the afternoon recital of all finalists. I hope you enjoy practising the poem with your child. We have worked very hard to understand it, and to gain a deeper understanding Robert Burns, ‘the man’, through reading his poetry.
