New Club!

Today was the first meeting of the JPA Library Book Club!

The Book Club will now run every Wednesday at Lunch Time, and the library will only be open to members during this time.

The Book Club has been created after requests from pupils to have a quiet reading space in the school during leisure time, offering a peaceful place to enjoy reading during a busy school day.  It also gives kids the opportunity to read what they want to read, without worrying about being quizzed or questioned on it.

The Book Club also gives pupils the chance to challenge themselves, set reading goals, monitor their reading habits, read together, and write reviews and recommendations for other pupils in the school.  All of the kids taking part in the Book Club are actively participating in the First Ministers Reading Challenge.  Already, kids are challenging each other to finish reading 100 books this year!
