READING NEWSLETTER
Issue No. 14 May 2025
Despite the short half term, we have had a lot to celebrate with regards to reading. In this edition, we will update you with breakfast parties, staff and pupil book reviews and our recommended reads. This half term our recommendations all have a World War Two theme, to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day.
7H1 breakfast party!
Each term, we host an exciting reading competition between the Form Classes in Year 7 and Year 8. Using Accelerated Reader quizzes to track progress, we encourage the boys to explore new books and achieve milestones in their reading journeys. At the end of each term, the Form Class to have read the highest number of books is rewarded with a special prize. This term, Miss Cunningham’s Form Class claimed the top spot, reading nearly 100 books. To celebrate their fantastic achievement, the class enjoyed a delicious breakfast party complete with donuts, muffins, and juice. Well done, 7H1 – keep up the great reading. Which Form Class will be the next reading winners?
Library borrowing Since September 2024, a staggering 5132 books have been borrowed from the library. With our book collection growing, make sure you keep visiting the library for the latest recommendations.
