“Hello we are Delilah and Lucas. It is our job this year to help in the running of the school by looking out for the children and the staff. We will shortly be making a little questionnaire for the pupils to see how they are doing in class, we are also building up a display board for the staff to keep them informed and smiling. For now, here is a story for you.”
