The fab team from the @Literacy_Trust created a story on the literacy bus with Whitby's KS2 students - with the help from @CC_Whitby Y7's... and had goody bags for all!! #reading#freebooks
Seeing as loads of y'all are off camping in the wilderness we'll extend the @CC_Whitby Flash Poem Poetry Competition until Monday when we'll have the judges make their decisions!
Please, oh please, we beg, we pray,
Go throw your TV set away,
And in its place you can install
A lovely bookshelf on the wall.
Then fill the shelves with lots of books,
Ignoring all the dirty looks,
Roald Dahl
