Book Week

Tuesday, August 20th – Friday, August 23rd

Just a reminder that Book Week is fast approaching.

 

In the last few newsletters there has been a lot of information about what is occuring during Book Week. Please see below for more details.

Children are welcome to join in as much as they would like to with competitions, but it would be wonderful if all children could have some type of costume for the Parade on Friday, August 23rd.
