Euxton C of E: 11%
Euxton Primrose Hill: 6%

The children have until 30th September to complete the reading challenge, and it is not too late for them to sign up now and complete for this date. Rember if they have completed the challenge, they can submit all the books they have read and the two top classes over the 5 schools will get a £20 book voucher.

It would be great if you could encourage the children to complete this summer reading challenge
