Huge Congratulations everyone!
I am delighted to announce that East Calder Primary has been awarded a Silver Reading Schools Award from the Scottish Book Trust.
Thank you to all staff, pupils and families who have been reading, talking about books, enjoying libraries and sharing their love of books and reading with others.
Classes completed the Reading Schools Attitude Survey and it was great to see many of you enjoy reading more now. You said you have more interesting things to read and describe reading as relaxing and fun.
Thank you for your involvement and enthusiasm, and a special mention to those who find reading a bit tricky but keep trying.
Now that we have an award it’s important to continue to build on our Reading culture at East Calder Primary. There will be lots of opportunities to carry on sharing our enjoyment of reading and books next session.
I am so proud of you all and remember KEEP READING!
