We are learning about road safety. We are also enjoying our class novel – ‘The Hodgeheg’. Why not ask your daughter to tell you all about it. Max the hedgehog is looking for a safe place to cross the road. He is sick of hedgehogs getting knocked down by those ‘big monsters ‘ – ie. cars. He sees the humans crossing safely on a black and white thing and sets out on an adventure. However, Max has a ‘timpiste – accident’ and gets hit by a cyclist. As a result, he gets a bump on his head and is very confused. Instead of thinking he’s a hedgehog, he think he’s a hodgeheg.

The children are wearing their high vis jackets to school and we have two children keeping a checklist. The girls are hoping to earn a certificate and a high vis reflector wristband the week of the Christmas holidays. You can do it children !!!
