Elder class enjoyed their first drama session with Annie from the Theatre Royal. They had great fun doing a ‘whoosh’ of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and making freeze frames of words relating to the story.

 

Elder class were very excited about their first reading session with Oak class. Due to the beautiful, sunny weather they could take their books outside to share. Elder class, you were brilliant – we were proud of you all.
