Our Class Mascots
We each have a class mascot and each weekend, our animal friend will go home with a child from the class.
We can't wait to find out what you get up to when the mascot visits one of your homes. You can write about your time together, draw pictures or take photos. If needed, get your adult to help you and most importantly, have FUN!
We look forward to reading the diary when you bring it back into school.
