Meet my new pal Hannah, she’ll sleep all winter long
I have to put on my Wellington boots (all four of them!), my raincoat, and my hat. I’ve just started Year 1, so I have lots of exciting work to do in class, and my teacher, Miss Potts, is really nice.
I made a new friend on my first day back, she’s called Hannah and she’s a hedgehog.

I asked her why and she told me slugs and snails are a hedgehog’s favourite food, and that now it’s autumn, she must eat as many as she can.
This is because hedgehogs sleep all winter! Before they go to sleep they must eat lots of big dinners so they don’t get hungry and wake up before spring.
I like eating, but I also like running around, jumping in puddles, jumping in piles of leaves, and I especially like Christmas.

I’m writing this after school for handwriting practice – my ‘w’ is getting better every day.
Next I’m going to read a book from school with my mum. I bet you have an exciting new book to read, too.
Why not tell me what your favourite thing about school is? Whether it’s playtime, storytime, drawing, or even maths!
Let me know what you like best about being back at school!
Chip chip for now!
