Butterfly Class

Class teacher’s welcome

Welcome to Butterfly Class Page!

I am so excited to share with you all the wonderful work and exciting things we get up to in Butterfly Class. It is going to be a fantastic year with lots of engaging opportunities for new learning. We are a loving and nurturing class and this year we will support the children to flourish and develop both socially and academically throughout their school journey.

I look forward to showing you all the wonderful things we get up over the coming weeks.
