During our first term back after summer in English, class 4 read Thornhill. They loved the book so much that they wrote a letter to the author , Pam Smy, with a few questions about the book. Pam Smy then replied to each letter in detail,answering their questions, thanking the boys for their letters and encouraging them to do well in English.
