Reading at Home

Books and stories have always been important but right now they are one of the most powerful tools to make children - and adults - feel really good. We can travel and explore the world from home, we can learn, we can laugh, we can cry, we can escape, we can connect, we can hope, we can dare to dream. Curling up with a good book has never been more important.

Below are the termly reading lists for Spring 2020 but there are also a great number of other resources that I would really recommend:

- Free access to the ‘First News’ digital here:

• FIRSTNEWS_May 31.pdf
• 15-21st May
• 1-7 May First News
• 24-30 April First News
• 17-23 April First News
