Please note: The school is currently considering changing our English Scheme. This week instead of using our ‘Get Set’ we are going to try a different book. It’s called ‘Ready to Go’ and this week’s story is called 'Please look after this bear'

‘Ready to Go’ can be found on the CJ Fallon website cjfallon.ie or by clicking on the book below. Girls, let us know what you think of it.

If you prefer or if it is easier for you, it is no problem if you want to read your ‘Get Set’. Just pick a new story, read it and do the activities.
