Our Starbooks Reading Cafe - Opening Soon!
An Invitation to our “Starbooks” Reading Café
A growing number of studies show that promoting reading can have a major impact on children and their future. Evidence suggests that reading for pleasure leads to increased attainment. Our children love sitting down and sharing a book and so I would like to invite you to join your child at our "Starbooks" Reading Café.
The Reading Café will be open from the end of school until 4:15pm on an afternoon allocated to each Year group over the next few weeks. It will take place in our new School Library.
Please collect your child from school as normal and make your way to the School Library via the external door off the playground where Staff will be waiting to welcome you.
Tea, coffee and water or squash will be available for a small charge to you and your child. Please help yourselves and find a space to relax. If you care for younger children, they are welcome to accompany you. You will have the opportunity to browse a selection of books, all you need to do is find a comfortable space to share it. If your child does not already have a school library book, you may select one to log out and take home with your child. Only one book can be borrowed at a time, so any books already out on loan can be returned on the day before the new one is borrowed.
We hope that our Reading Café will provide joy for both you and your child and that you will be able to spend some memorable and special time together to support your child’s reading for pleasure journey.
I will look forward to meeting you on the dates below:
