Reading Shed Donations Welcome

Dear Families

Spring and warmer weather are on their way…we hope! We are planning on getting reading for enjoyment back into our playground and have bought a reading shed and cushions. All we need now is the reading material!

 

We are looking for picture story books, novels, children’s magazines etc. …they do not need to be as new. Even 1 book per family would give us 400+ books. Our aim is to be ready to open our book shed doors on Thursday 3rd March on World Book Day .

 

Please send into school with your child. We can make our exciting playground into playground perfect!

World Book Day Thursday 3rd March

Thursday 3rd March will see the launch of our exciting new Playground Reading Shed. Pupils have been invited to donate a book to add to a collection of books which will only be used in the playground.

Classes will be celebrating World Book Day and promoting reading, but please note that as part of our initiative to reduce the cost of the school day, this year we are keen to discourage dressing up. Instead, we would like pupils to bring a favourite book or wear a sticker with the name of their favourite book.

All pupils will receive a £1 book token that can be exchanged for one of ten £1 books or used to obtain a £1 discount at selected bookshops.
