"Reading inspires us to dream" Dolly Parton.
Last year, we created a team of volunteers who helped us with reading with individual pupils. These dedicated individuals supported in different year groups to listen to children read - and as a school we a grateful and appreciatative of everything they do 🥰
Many of these volunteers have been kind enough to get involved again this year BUT we would like to make this team even bigger! Is this something you can help with? Or maybe a grandparent? Please do get in touch if you'd like to get involved - or just hear about more this. Please email the office and Mrs Channon or Mrs James will be in touch.

Every Monday we introduce a core book which is then shared throughout the week. The books are available for the children to access independently as well as being read to at group carpet time sessions, alongside many other books. 📖📖
The children become very familiar with the core book which range from traditional tales, to information books, developing a love of reading and storytelling. 🗣
We also learn a core poem each month that we focus on alongside learning lots of nursery rhymes and poems. The core book title and poem will be written on the white board outside of Preschool for your information and to talk about with your child.
Please encourage your child to sing the core poem at home with you! Reading, singing and poetry promote literacy skills, language development, listening and attention, personal, social and emotional skills and so much more 🥰
