Good new for spooky story fans everywhere! My super-scary KRUSCHMEISESTER book goes out as a free download on Friday, alongside with a ten-page fun activity pack. Go to my website home page to find it. peterjmurray.co.uk

Spending just 10 minutes a day reading and sharing stories with children can make a crucial difference to their outcome and it’s fun for all involved. You can read together anywhere and everywhere, from breakfast to bedtime!

Book Fair was very busy today. We really do love reading! @RCS_main @PeleTrust

Just a reminder that we are celebrating World Book Day next Thursday (5th March 2020). Pupils are encouraged to dress up as their favourite book character and the book fair will be in school all next week. Pupils will take part in a variety of activities with their class teacher.

The February issue of our newsletter is now available for Y5 and 6 prospective parents and current Y7 parents to give an insight into life as Year 7 student at Ponteland High School. Find it on our website: ponthigh.org.uk/transition/ @PontHigh @PeleTrust
