Reception had a surprise mystery reader today, Mrs Rhodes returned to spend some time with the children and read some stories. The children were really excited and sat beautifully whilst Mrs Rhodes read ‘You choose your dream’ and ‘Girls can do anything’. We hope she comes back soon!

The weather may have dampened the fields but not the mood. Here are most of the class getting kitted up for climbing this afternoon.
After cookies, sweets and hot-chocolate, the children are all showered and in their pyjamas ready for their first night at Stanley Head.
