This week, our Primary 7 pupils teamed up with Primary 1 for a special paired reading session, and what a wonderful time they had!<\/p>\n
The Primary 7 children took on the important role of reading buddies, supporting and encouraging our youngest learners as they explored their books. They showed great patience, kindness and enthusiasm, helping to build confidence and a love of reading in Primary 1.<\/p>\n
Primary 1 thoroughly enjoyed sharing stories with their buddies. It was lovely to see them so engaged, turning pages proudly and talking about the pictures and characters together.<\/p>\n
Experiences like this are so valuable for both stages. Primary 7 developed their leadership and communication skills, while Primary 1 benefited from positive role models and extra reading support.<\/p>\n
