Posted by Aline Denholm in : Uncategorized , add a comment

The book fair is running in the school this week (12/11/07 - 16/11/07) . Each class is getting a chance to look at the books on offer. The children can write down a book they are hoping to purchase.
Parents can visit the book fair on parents’ evenings and purchase books or they can send in the name of the book plus the money and the children can hand this to the school office. If the book is available they will get it straight away, if not it will be ordered and they will get it as soon as possible.

Our favourite book was Around the World in Eighty Days - an adventure story, followed by Guess How Much Love You - a love story, then Hairy Maclary - a funny story and lastly The Three Little Pigs - a scary story.
