Hello and welcome to this week’s blog post.  Thank you for responding to our question "Do you know who your child's key person is?".  We had 24 responses, 23 yes and 1 no.  We have now emailed everyone to inform you of your child's key person, if you are still unsure please speak to the room leader.  We now have a new question, "Do you read the blog?"

  Hello and welcome to this week’s blog post. We have had a busy start to the last half term of this year! We have a new area by the front door with a new donation tree.  The free fruit (and random donations from Tesco!) will also be available on the new cabinet, please feel free to help yourself.  We will also display a question on the board and ask you to add a counter to the yes or no jar with your answer.  This will help us to reflect on how we are doing and help us to improve, I hope to add a comments box and paper for you to leave any suggestions relating to the question.  The current question is "Do you know who your child's key person is?" I would also like to remind you all that the library is still available for you to take preloved books from and to add any that you no longer want.  Please do have a look through with your child and choose a book to take home. I n Class 2 this week our tadpoles have started to turn into tiny frogs!!  We
