Today Year 2 Penguin class walked into the classroom and met an unexpected visitor. Paddington Bear was waiting at the front of the classroom with a very important letter for the children.  He also had a special London book for us to read aloud to the class after reading the exciting letter.

The children were very excited to meet Paddington Bear and they couldn’t wait for his news. Paddington’s letter stated that he was going to spend all term in our class and help us learn all about London. Paddington Bear also decided that the children could take him home to meet their families and friends as long as they wrote about their time spent with him.

The children were so excited about their special visitor and couldn’t wait to take him home. Paddington’s letter finished with ‘Can you find London on the map?’ During the rest of the afternoon we looked at London on the map to see exactly how far Paddington had travelled from. After all he decided to meet year 2 Penguin Class at Boarshaw Primary School rather than the Queen.
