  3. Dear Boys and Girls
    Your school sounds amazing. I would love to come and see the koalas in the trees and read some of the many books you have!
    Well done for creating a great list. Tomorrow I will show your writing to my Y2 class and we can compare it with the list we made today (it is on our blog if you want to have a look).
    Best wishes
    Miss Ash

  4. How lovely to see you all in your school. It looks like a lovely place to learn and how exciting to have Koalas in your school trees. I am also going to show your list to woodpeckers tomorrow so they can compare it with their own list. It will be interesting to see how many things are the same and how many are different.

  5. Hi (again) Room 4 – I loved reading through your 29 great things about Craigburn. I agree with you all, our school is a wonderful place to be. Keep up the excellent work 🙂
