\nWHSmith donates book vouchers to help St. Columba\u2019s Primary boost their library resources.
\nThe store manager from WHSmith enjoyed a visit to St. Columba\u2019s Primary recently as part of the WHSmith Trust\u2019s Scottish \u2018Encouraging Reading\u2019 programme. As part of the \u2018Encouraging Reading\u2019 programme, the WHSmith Trust is donating vouchers to twenty four schools across Scotland to help boost the schools\u2019 library with \u201cBooks for Reluctant Readers\u201d for the new academic year.
<\/p>\n

WHSmith is working alongside Dyslexia Scotland and publisher Barrington Stoke who publish super-readable children\u2019s books that break down the barriers that can stop kids getting into reading. These books have been created specifically to support children with dyslexia or visual stress, and provide them with a fantastic range of books to choose from. <\/p>\n

WHSmith store manager Lee Simpson said:
\n\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to have the opportunity to support St. Columba\u2019s School and to help encourage pupils who are perhaps more reluctant to read with a great range of books.\u201d<\/p>\n

The WHSmith Group Charitable Trust is an independent charity (registered charity no. 1013782). The Trust has two principal objectives: to support the local community in which WHSmith staff and customers live and work; and to support education and lifelong learning. The charity plays an important role in enabling WHSmith to be at the heart of the local communities it serves. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
