Book Character Day

What a great week we had at WBS with the Scholastic book fair visiting us, DEAR and the finale of the week being our book character parade.  The children (and teachers) went to great effort to come dressed as their favourite book character.  Well done to you all.

Calendar Art

The children in room 21 have worked very hard on their calendar art this year and they have done a fantastic job.
Orders for these are due by next Friday, the 5th September.  If you have lost your order form, contact me via email and I will send another home with your child.
