On Monday this week it is our annual open day. The school will be open to visitors between 9.30am and 2.30pm, feel free to come in and have a look around.
This week in literacy we will become language detectives. We will use our knowledge of language and familiar stories to learn more about the Spanish language. We will read some well know fairy tales in Spanish and then try and translate them into Spanish.
