[Mr Foster @CFS_MrF]

Well done to Harriet for being our representative in Highlights assembly, she read part of her excellent diary entry. Also well done to Olivia, who received a lovely hot chocolate. She is a super star and has been working hard this week!

[Tom Percival @TomPercivalsays]

@HeadCrossley Thanks for getting in touch! That’s so nice to hear. I’m really glad you’ve been able to build such a full scheme of work around themes within the book.

[Mr Foster @CFS_MrF]

The class came up with some fantastic vocabulary and noun phrases for the beginning of our new writing topic.
