#Take10ToRead at Sandwick Junior High School
Reading for pleasure is known to help relax, unwind and boost mood, reduce stress levels, improve concentration and memory. That’s why, on Thursday 10th October at 10am, the National Literacy Trust were calling on the nation to #Take10ToRead in support of World Mental Health Day.
At Sandwick Junior High School, we asked that all staff and classes from the early years department to secondary 4 all stop what they were doing at 10am on Thursday 10th October and take just 10 minutes to read for their own enjoyment. It didn’t need to be a book, it could be a game match report, newspaper, magazine, recipes, anything that interests the pupils and staff.
