Dear Sparrows, Kingfishers and Squirrels, We wish you were here! We are having a lovely Easter break. On Monday we went down to the pond, we found lots of creatures. On Wednesday we explored the new library. It looks amazing! On the last day of the holidays we dressed up as pirates and played on the ship outside. Can you see Rodney and Sparrie? We can’t wait to see you all soon and hear about your holidays. Love from Sparrie, Arlo, Rodney and Rebel xxxx
