December Newsletter NEWS Stay and Read Day

The Swans have been enjoying hosting ‘Stay and Read’ sessions with parents as part of our mission to inspire a love for reading! The Swans have loved showing their parents lots of their favourite books and creating their own stories using story flashcards, even using a mixture of puppets and props to bring life to the stories! We’re excited for our next Stay and Read session very soon.
