Our big focus this year in school is on improving children's reading. The children and staff are working really hard and there is a lot going on in school but we really need YOUR help.
It is very important that you listen to your child read at home - ideally every night. It doesn't have to be a full book - a few pages would be great. If you spend 5-10 minutes every day hearing your child read at home, the difference it makes to their confidence and ability is massive.
The children collect stickers/petals in school every time they read at home and are working towards achieving awards so please support them in this - they love the competition!
Reading is such a vital skill to have and we want our children to do the best they possibly can.
