Most of us remember being read to, by a parent, grandparent, sibling or teacher and those moments of shared imagining and warmth. Reading aloud with a child, sharing a book together is powerful, it is joyful, and it has a deep and lasting effect. When we read to children in our classes, we are saying that reading matters to us, that we value books and want to make time for them in the busy school day. We also know that reading aloud is fun, that children love to hear stories, join in with well-loved phrases, pretend to be characters from books in their play.

Reading aloud gives that to all our children.

We would like to invite you in to your child’s class to a shared reading session your child. You’ll be able to watch the class teacher share their class book with the children, look through a variety of books and finally enjoy a book with your child.

The gates will be open at 2:45pm. Please go through the playground and enter via your child’s classroom door. You will be able to leave with your child at the end of the session.
