Welcome to our Literacy Page!

It's an exciting time for us in Literacy. There's so much happening within the school that is inspiring us to read more, write more and just generally get lost in an amazing world of words, and we love it!

THE BOOK FAIR 2018

We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you that visited the Book Fair this year. It's been great to see so many of you getting exciting about the new titles on offer. Due to these sales, we have gained commission of over £400 which will towards new books for our library as well as resources for the teaching staff to support the development of reading skills.

Once again, a great big THANK YOU!

The Reading Disco

Is still going strong this year and we saw a staggering 196 children there!!

With the inclusion of a Lip Sync Battle, our Reading Disco is becoming a real hit! If you read a total of 12 times in 3 weeks - signed into your reading record by an adult -you'll earn yourself a Golden Ticket and be able to join us on a Friday Lunchtime for a boogie. If your class has the most attendees, you'll also win the Glitter Ball Trophy!

We'd also like to welcome the new Junior Librarians. They're already doing a fantastic job, organising the library shelves, giving advice to children about selecting the right book and leading the reading in the outdoor portable library.

What will you be reading this half term!?

See...I told you there was a lot to be excited about!

Keep up the Great Work!
Miss Waight
