The March Fair.

Shared Reading:

Literacy skills are given a high priority at St. Louis Infant School. Our shared reading programme owes its success to parent volunteers who give generously of their time to develop a love of reading and books in our young pupils.

Parents of children generously helped out for our March Fair - a St Louis tradition of buying and selling toys from one child to the next. It is a huge day in our calendar and one which many parents remember from their own days with us.
