First Minister’s Reading Challenge

fmrc-teaserThe school is delighted to announce that it has registered to take part in the First Minister’s Reading Challenge.  Scottish Book Trust is delivering the Reading Challenge on behalf of the Scottish Government. The Challenge is targeted at Primary 4 – 7 pupils in all primary schools in Scotland, providing resources to help children develop a love of reading and to support schools to develop reading cultures. The research tells us that reading for enjoyment in childhood leads to a number of lifelong benefits, as well as improvements in attainment. We hope this exciting programme will inspire children, teachers, parents and others to develop a love of reading that lasts a lifetime.  The school looks forward to receiving a Reading Passport for each Pr.4 – 7 pupil and to take part in this exciting challenge to get everyone reading for enjoyment.
