Reading Newsletter
Every half term we produce a Reading Newsletter to promote a love of reading. Please find time to share it at home together. In it, we aim to recommend some good reads, profile authors and usually have some book related fun with puzzles or quizzes!
A member of staff will share their favourite children’s books too. This time, its a big thank you to Mrs Morris, who works in the school office, who tells us all about the books she enjoyed reading as a child.
Enjoy!

School Choir…
Please can I remind school choir there are two opportunities for you to sign up to on ParentPay…
11th November: Burton Borough Remembrance Service at St Nicholas’ Church 6-7.15pm.
The choir will perform two songs and will join with the rest of the performers for a joint piece of music.
We would be delighted if your child would be able to join us for this event.
Children are asked to arrive at St Nicholas’ Church for 5pm for a rehearsal and then parents are welcomed to join the audience for a 6pm start.
Children will be asked to wear their school uniform and a poppy for this event.
