We have had great fun reading The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Child. Kathleen very kindly came to read the Scot’s language versions of The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Wean.
The Morning Group made a giant Gruffalo scone, which was delicious!
Both groups have been working together to make a display with the characters of the Gruffalo!
