We all had a great day celebrating our love of books. The children and staff had fun dressing up as a character from a book, swapping books with each other, learning about a story linked to Science as well as eating a special World Book day lunch.

Our Visit To London
We took some of our School Council to London with the other Aspire schools. We visited Parliament, Downing Street, Horseguards Parade and Buckingham Palace.
