The education world has lost a wonderful light. It is hard to put into words the heartbreak of saying our goodbyes to Catherine today. She was a vibrant beautiful lady inside and out. Sending love and prayers to the McCann family and to all who cherished her. #flyhigh

Reading stimulates imagination and increases vocabulary. What better activity during #ParentsWeek
Enjoy reading together, become the characters in a book - give each character their own voice and add your own sound effects.
