P2 and P3 Parents’ Reading Session

We would like to invite parents/guardians to a Reading Session on Friday 25 November as part of Book Week Scotland. During this week there will be a big focus on reading in school and the children in Primary 2 and Primary 3 will be gifted with a READ, WRITE and COUNT pack.

The aim of this pack is to give parents ideas and materials to use to support their children’s learning outside the classroom. At this session, we hope to share the pack and more ideas regarding reading.

The children will be introduced to the pack by older children within the school and will have a chance to read the books and play the games before taking them home.

We look forward to seeing you on Friday 25 November at 2.30pm.
