It is so amazing to see everything that has been going on in libraries and schools to celebrate Read Aloud and the fantastic achievements of our children and teachers in Reading Recovery.
As part of our special read aloud week, pupils attended the Foundry today to meet David Currie from the BBC.
He was delighted to celebrate in our pupils achievements in reading and invited them to come up and read aloud a page from their favourite books!
