READING NEWSLETTER
Issue No. 8 May 2024
Welcome to our latest edition of the St Cuthbert’s Reading Newsletter. In this issue, we continue to reflect and update you on how we have promoted and celebrated reading last half term and hear from book-loving pupils, students, and staff. With Empathy Day coming up on 6th June, why not sit down with one of our empathy-related books this half term?
Pizza party!
The first form to win the reading challenge is 8O1! Over the past term, form classes in Years 7-9 competed to read the most books. To celebrate the winners, 8O1 received a pizza party in the library! In total, pupils in 8O1 read 256 books. An amazing accomplishment! Keep it up! The bar is set high now and we look forward to seeing who wins next time!
The Scholastic Book Fair returned to the library this term. Pupils and students had the chance to browse and purchase their own books. The fair is a wonderful opportunity to empower students to select their own books and inspire them on their journey to becoming lifelong readers.
