Last half-term we introduced a range of initiatives to help foster a love of reading around the school. Staff were filmed reading their favourite bedtime stories, Parents were invited into classes to be a ‘mystery’ reader in their child’s class and prizes were given to classes who read the most at home.
We’d really appreciate it if you could complete the attached questionnaire. It helps us to measure the impact these initiative have had both in school and at home.
Thank you to those of you who joined us at one of our workshops focusing on ways to support your child with their reading. It was great to hear such positive feedback from the sessions.

We would like to invite parents to come along and join us at our next parent forum on Tuesday 11th December between 2.30 and 3 pm. It’s free to attend, simply join us on the day in the Community Meeting Room.Â
The Parent Forum is a partnership between parents and the school. It’s a valuable way to share ideas, views, concerns and make suggestions for improvement. The meeting on the 11th December will focus on home learning.
We look forward to seeing you there.

Year 3 have been investigating the possibility of dragons living and nesting in the Queen’s Hill wooded area. Check out the photos to see what they found!
Year 2-4 had an amazing morning, meeting the author and illustrator Benji Davies. They got the chance to listen to his stories and create their own illustrations. The children were all very engaged and asked some great questions. It looks like we may have some future authors and illustrators in our midst!
