Keep Reading

 Summer Reading 🕮🔖

The Summer Reading Challenge in partnership with local Libraries is generally run for Primary age students but may be of interest for Year 6 into Year 7 or current Year 7 students. The challenge runs until 23^rd September and involves students setting themselves a reading goal for themselves. Watch the below video for more information or head to the Summer Reading Challenge website.

The local library is free to join and students and adults alike can take books out for free. Usually, the local libraries host other free events throughout the year too!

World Book Day provide a range of ways to keep involved with reading whilst away from school including access to some free audiobooks. These include some for younger and older readers and some condensed classics such as 'A Christmas Carol'. The World Book Day page also has other ways to get involved with books such as activities and competitions.

Lastly, we will officially be launching it in September, but we have recently added some ebooks to our Library catalogue through the use of Eplatform, which is an ebook hosting platform. Students will be able to access this through our online Library webapp Accessit and can find a range of books on there that are available to read online. All students will be receiving guidance of how to use this in September, either in their Library lessons, English lessons or during form time as well as there being guidance available on Frog. 

If you wanted to have a look at our ebook catalogue, you can do so through the following link: https://wcsc.eplatform.co/ but from September, students will mainly use this through Accessit. 

Happy Reading over the summer!
