This year our classroom is themed around the book Journey around the world by Jules Verne. Enjoy reading a book in our station whilst waiting for your journey to begin.

Homework:

Home reading: Your child will be issued with a home reading book this should be read daily and changed often. It is also important that this book is brought to school every day as your child will read with an adult in class.
