Hook into a Book

This week we were introduced to our new Love to Read book ‘Escape from Pompeii’. The children enjoyed investigating the front cover and blurb, and guessing what was going to happen. It is wonderful to see the children’s enthusiasm and the links they are making to their Extreme Earth topic in Geography.

We hope you have a lovely weekend!
