A Massive Thank You!

We want to thank the P.T.A. for raising money so we could buy some wonderful books for our book corner!  We were very lucky to be given the time and money to think about which books would enrich our book corners and spread the love of reading to our children.  Our class were very excited when they saw the books and have enjoyed looking at, discussing and listening to all the varied books.

THANK YOU from our Kingfishers.
