Books can be an effective tool to talk and explore anxieties about going back to school as well as starting in a new class or celebrating big moments like starting nursery! In the photo I added a selection of my favourite children books you might want to read with your child or recommend to family and friends. For more options please visit BookTrust: https://www.booktrust.org.uk/booklists/s/starting-school/ Happy Reading!?[/dropshadowbox]

[dropshadowbox align=”none” effect=”lifted-both” width=”auto” height=”” background_color=”#ffffff” border_width=”1″ border_color=”#dddddd” ]At times, people think of Croydon as a difficult place. I think of it as a very creative place, just like Howard Primary and its pupils. It has been a long, challenging year but we have September to look forward to. We have the future of our pupils to look forward to. Have a look at this video and discover how amazing and talented young people from Croydon are. From all of us, to all of you, keep safe, be creative!
