Well done for another day of hard work everybody! Today, Miss Grundy has been particularly impressed with Leon's poetry. Well done Leon - keep up the hard work! Miss Sentance also loved reading Taylor's poem and was particularly impressed with his use of onomatopoeia (yes I did have to google that spelling!). Also, a big well done to Imogen for her French work yesterday.
