ARCHIVED Year 4 Blog 2024/25

Today we were really lucky that Peter J Murray visited us. He talked us all about his 20 anniversary of his original series of ‘Mokee Joe’. He talked us through how and why he became an author; it was surprising that he was actually a maths teacher before he was a author.  He then spoke in depth about the characters of Mokee Joe and how he developed them all. The children were so engaged and loved hearing Peter retell some of the Mokee Joe story.  

 We have some brilliant readers in Year 4 and we have already been blown away by the children’s passion for books. In school, the children have access to our well-stocked book corners, as well as our whole school library. This week, Holly class had the privilege of spending some time in the library enjoying their books and even selecting some new ones to bring home.
