CALAT (Croydon Adult Learning and Training) have been running family language classes in our Willow centre for our parents and carers. It has been great to see our families come together to improve their English, practice speaking and listening and working towards a reading exam. Every week, the children join us for part of the sessions to share stories and take part in activities with their parents and carers. This week, we read the book ‘Shark in the Park’ by Nick Sharratt, children made their own telescopes and joined in with key phrases in the story. Parents and carers were given a set of questions to ask their children about the book. Parents were able to take these handy questions home to continue working on talking about stories with their children. Thanks to Jacqueline and all the parents who attend for working hard to make these sessions a huge success!
