Reading club

Thank you to parents that have been attending our Friday reading club. This is an important opportunity for you to help your child succeed in reading and writing.
The National Literacy Trust stated: Reading is the key to unlocking any child's future potential. Children who read well by 11 do better at school, get better exam results and do better in the workplace - they're also best placed to give their own children the best start in life. However, here in the UK, far too many children leave primary school every year without being a confident reader. This has a terrible knock on effects for these children's future prospects. The UK has a strong link between low pay, unemployment and poor reading skills. Not reading well can mean a life sentence of poverty.
