As part of the World Book Event and our on-going commitment to promoting reading in our school, we were visited by John Dougherty on Tuesday (28th Feb 2017). Every class got to work with John and at the end he did a special assembly for children, staff and parents/carers. The children were literally laughing out loud at John’s retelling of his ‘Stink Bomb’ and ‘Ketchup Face’ stories and his hilarious songs. He spent quality time with each child who had ordered a book during the book signing and again after school. The children were excited, engaged and inspired by his visit. Photographs will go in our reading corridor.
Further to this our reading pupil leaders from across the school have been working really hard to promote visits to the library and rewarding children with bookmarks for visiting the library and using it so well every lunchtime. The reading pupil leaders have been running the library every day and the reading area in our outdoor classroom, thank you for taking on this responsibility so well.
