Week 4 It has been lovely to meet you this week at our "Meet the teacher" events. We will send home the information through parent mail if you didn't make it. Please make sure you have phoned the office to book a story session and transistion meeting. Throughout the work we do, we emphasis the importance of reading to your child.  "Harper Collins research – April 2025 Only 41% of 0–4-year-olds are read to frequently; this is a decline from 64% in 2012"   Below is a link to a video that shows the very special connection that is made when you share a book with your child. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtFaVo6S0rQ Please get in touch if you have any questions: newyr@whiteleyapps.com
