Dear Parents,

Next week is book week at school. Room 9’s theme this year is pirates! We will be reading lots of pirate stories and poems as well as making lots of artwork and pirate crafts.

We will need some empty tissue boxes, if you have any spare bring them in as soon as possible. I would also like to invite any family members (including Grandparents, Aunties and Uncles) in to read to the children for 5 to 10 minutes. This would be in two different time slots either 12.20-12.30 or 2.50–3.00. Please let me know beforehand with a note from your child if you are coming in the following day so we don’t have too many here. I will respond and let you know if it suits.

On Friday we have the whole school book parade. Remember that your child needs to come to school dressed as a book character. It is great if they have the book the character came from, but not mandatory.

We are all looking forward to a very enjoyable week!





Kind regards
Sarah Blackford
