EYFS Dress up day – I want to be …

Dear Parents/Carers

On Friday 4th October we are inviting all EYFS pupils to come to school dressed up as someone they would like to be when they grow up.
This will link to the work the children have been doing in Literacy, and the current EYFS topic ‘All About Me’.
If you have any questions about this or anything else, please speak to your child’s class teacher, or email the school admin team.

Many thanks,

Miss Harris
