It’s taken me a while to add numbers up, but that’s no surprise when you see how much has been read by pupils and staff during our 2-week reading challenge! S1 are the overall winners and have already received their prize – German Christmas biscuits and some chocolate. You can see the final scores and the delighted winners in the photos below.

Congratulations also to the other classes and the staff that have taken part. I really enjoyed the competitive spirit and the book recommendations. It’s brilliant that we have so many keen readers in our school.

Next week, I will hand out merits to individual pupils who have read the most in each year group and have helped boost their class’s overall score, so check your children’s homework diaries to see if they got one!
