‘Fiona the Pig’s big day‘
The first day of school is always an exciting one, and Fiona the Pig is VERY excited indeed!

‘Starting School‘
Meet Wynn, Izzy, Sumedha, Alfie and Hugo.
They are here to tell you all about the joys of taking their first big step and share the wonderful picture book, Starting School by Jane Godwin & Anna Walker.

‘Tiggy: A school day smile‘
Today is Tiggy’s first day of school, and she is super excited! But she’s also not quite sure what to expect and that makes Tiggy a bit nervous.

‘Twig‘
Heidi is a stick insect, long and thin like the twig of a tree. It’s her first day at Bug School, where she hopes to learn lots and make new friends.

‘Miss Kraken‘
She’s cranky. She’s strict. She’s just plain … weird. Miss Kraken is definitely not the teacher the kids were hoping for. But she might have a surprise or two up her sleeves.
