This week year 1 were proud to announce two writers of the week.

William has been working hard on using finger spaces when writing sentences.

Millie wrote a fabulous persuasive advert, including exciting adjectives and some great conjunctions to extend her sentences.

Well done, we love to read your super writing and seeing you make progress.

Today we got a lovely surprise from the LMPS postman. An envelope from Kensington Palace!

Last term we wrote letters to members of the royal family, learning how to formally address different members of the royal family and using our most polite language.

Some of us chose to write to Harry and Meghan to congratulate them on the news that they are expecting their first child.

Inside the envelope was a letter from the secretary to The Duke and Duchess of Sussex (Harry and Meghan). Our replies included a letter to all of the children in year 1 and individual cards for the children who had written.
