Special Delivery in Bury St Edmunds
It was lovely, finally, to be able to go into Abbots Green Primary School and work with the Year 4 children; they made such beautiful postcards, several of which we were able to take over to Oxlip House in the afternoon, where we ran a delightful session with some of the residents.
And the best news is that the school and Oxlip House are really keen to be involved in the Special Delivery Postcard Club – so they will be exchanging postcards and making sure they stay in touch over the coming months.
