weekly snapshots

The Grade 1 class led the Foundation Phase Assembly this week and spoke about the meaning of diversity and how we are all different and unique even though we are Micklefield girls. Some of the Grade 1s volunteered to come up on stage and introduce themselves and say a few words about themselves and what sort of things they like doing. Well done, girls!
