Reading

Early reading is a key priority of our school, we foster a love of reading which permeates every classroom in the school. Staff share a love of stories with our children, transporting them to different worlds, igniting their imaginations, exposing them to the rich knowledge of non-fiction books. Stephen King once said, “Books are a uniquely portable magic” and we couldn’t agree more!

From the moment children step through our doors, we teach and encourage them to be confident, fluent readers through a rigorous phonics programme that ensures by the time a child leaves our care, they are happy to read and ready to take on the world!

We want children in our school to have a love for reading so intense they simply HAVE to pick up a book!  It is our promise to all of our pupils to enable them to become life-long learners.

We are continuously purchasing new texts for our children to immerse themselves in alongside out use of MYON online readers as part of our accelerated reader support too. 

COMING SOON

To support the 7000 texts that our children have access to via Myon (digital texts), we are working hard to get our reading area and library rehoused, reorganised and redesigned.

Watch this space everyone!!
