A1: The Christmas Tale of Peter Rabbit
P2/3: The Snowman
A2: The Polar Express
P4/5: Father Christmas
P6/7: How the Grinch stole Christmas
P2/3 Book Week
Wow, what a great time P2/3 had during book week! Not only did we have special visits from 3 authors but P2/3 became authors and illustrators themselves. The children created a sequel to one of their favourite stories ‘The Day the Crayons Quit’. P1/2 children were invited along to the book launch of ‘The Day the Crayons were Happy’.
The children were also kept very busy organising and running the book swap stall which proved to be very popular!
They also had great fun at the CAPER and P6/7 reading cafe getting all cosied up with some hot chocolate and marshmallows!
