Year 4 had some super visitors from Year 2 this week to share their fantastic ‘Room on the broom’ writing. Mrs Cummings, Miss Woodhead & Year 4 were so impressed with the writing standard in year 2. 😊😊

Writing is a way to express yourself, but it's also a powerful tool to lift your voice, disrupt the power structure, seek justice, and advocate for what is right. You can use writing to shape the kind of writing you want to live in. #awritersnotebook #joywrite
