School’s reading adventure week


Their Adventure in Reading started with the children coming to school dressed as their favourite book character, and learning in mixed age groups across the key stages with a series of sessions aimed at inspiring them in their reading, as well as developing their skills as readers.
The week continued with a performance of Treasure Island from a visiting theatre company, a ‘Bring a Book at Bedtime Pyjama Day’ and the Great Book Swap’. There was also a week long competition with all children invited to bring in a photo of themselves reading in a wonderful or unusual place.
