Year 5 – 08/03/24

Well done for your brilliant World Books Day costumes; I was so impressed with the effort you had gone to!

In the afternoon, Year 5 shared some of their recent Watertower writing with Year 2, who read what they’d been recently writing – it was lovely to see so many budding authors proud to share their work!

We were lucky enough to have Mrs Pinto – Chloe’s mum and soon-to-be-published author – coming into the classroom this afternoon to read the beginning of her novel Who Watches the Watchmen? The children thoroughly enjoyed hearing the story and had lots of questions for her about the writing process. Thank you Mrs Pinto!
