As the Literacy Champion, and Julie as Communication Champion, we have set up, planned and resourced a home link that you and your child can spend time doing together. This home link is called the ‘Lending Library’ and will take place over a 4- week block.
On Friday, your child will choose a book that they wish within their group time and will come home with this to provide the opportunities of reading with their family and spending time with them in doing so. The book will be located within their named folder that also contains a feedback sheet for your child to fill in. We request if this can please be returned by early on in the following week (Monday/Tuesday), so the library is ready and stocked back up for your child receiving their new book on the Friday. Keyworkers will remind parents/carers throughout the week just in case you forget. If there are any problems, please let us or your child’s keyworker know and we will try our best to solve these.
Have fun and happy reading!!
