We have had a lovely day doing lots of ‘Royal wedding’ based activities. Photos to follow.

Many of us at Bicton still remember Jenna’s bubbly personality and her lovely smile. We all send our love and thoughts to her parents, Cara and Mark, and their family at this very sad time.

igh – fly high

Thank you for feeding back on how your child is getting on with reading their ditties and group book words. We have enjoyed reading some of the sentences children have written at home and shared on Tapestry.
