This photo, from the Scottish Book Trust is inspiring! 🙂
“We cannot wait to launch the second year of the First Minister’s Reading Challenge! From 4 September you will be able to register at http://ReadingChallenge.scot/ “

Plus, have a read of this article from The Herald – Reading challenge expanded to secondary school pupils – “A scheme to encourage pupils to read more is being expanded to secondary schools. The First Minister’s Reading Challenge will be trialled up to S3 at six schools to help stem the drop in reading for pleasure when pupils move from primary to secondary school. The challenge, launched in March 2016 for P4-P7 pupils, was rolled out to all primary school children earlier this year.” – The Herald

Hopefully BHS pupils can take part in the challenge the near future. Reading for Pleasure is definitely the key to developing a successful reading culture which, in turn, impacts positively on all aspects of pupils’ learning. 🙂
