Reception Library visit

Today all of the children in Reception walked to Hornchurch Library for their first school trip. Once inside, the children were introduced to Viv, who explained how a library works and how to use the library correctly. She then read a story to the children engaging them by asking questions and asking children to join in using actions.
The children then had the opportunity to look at a range of books with the staff and parents volunteers before choosing one to bring back to school. Viv also showed them the 'magic table' which is an interactive table with lots of activities.
The children then enjoyed their packed lunches (Thank you mums!) before catching the 193 bus back to school.
The children were exceptionally well behaved and we are very proud of their behaviour outside of school.
