Year 3 Literacy Buddieshttp://www.ststephens.qld.edu.au/What's On/latest-news-events/Pages/Literacy-Buddies.aspxYear 3 Literacy Buddies<p style="text-align:justify;">​Towards the end of the school year, the Year 3 students visited their Literacy Buddies from Year 3 at St Paul's Woodridge. The students have been writing letters to each other regularly throughout the year.  The students were very excited to play with their buddies and be taken on a tour of the St Paul’s school. Some wonderful friendships have been formed through the writing of these letters and the students have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We will continue this initiative between the two schools by writing to one another next year in Year 4! Stay tuned! Big thank you to Jo, Tracy and Bianca for all your hard work in making this happen.<br></p><p style="text-align:justify;">​ <br></p>
