Every day counts! ๐ŸŒŸ

Each day your Reception or Year 1 children attend school, theyโ€™ll earn a chance to be entered into our fantastic prize draw! ๐Ÿงบโœจ The more days theyโ€™re in, the better their odds of winning a fabulous family hamper.

๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ‘‘ This week, our Leopards have been getting creative with poetry! They wrote clerihews about Queen Victoria, using a sticky fact as inspiration and adding plenty of humour along the way. ๐Ÿ‘‘โœ๏ธ

They carefully followed the format of a clerihew, then took the time to edit, improve and polish their poems before publishing. Weโ€™ve loved seeing their creativity, historical knowledge and sense of fun shine through! ๐ŸŒŸ
