Library News
This month, Morris Gleitzman in his role as Children’s Laureate has written about the ability of stories to make us think more deeply, to see other perspectives and to walk in another’s shoes.

Students have been challenged to see how the stories they are reading lead to different thinking and more empathetic responses, great dinner table conversation for you at home!
Parent and Student Book Club
Our first ever Parent and Student Book Club met last Tuesday evening to share our thoughts on Emily Rodda’s latest novel His Name was Walter. We all agree that it is a great read so check it out!
Our next gathering is planned for 20th November (Week 7) so it is not too late to read this fabulous story with your student and join in the chat.
