Castle Hill children had an incredible month of reading in May, Every single month we challenge the whole school to read more and more. The children have beaten most of their scores from March, our last full month of school, impressing all the staff by reading 676 books, 2,917,974 words and they even bettered our school target of reading for 18 minutes per day! This was fantastic news before the half term and we are looking forward to see if the children can keep up their impressive efforts in June and July as the school year comes to an end.
Spending time reading is the most important thing any child can do to improve their learning, so please listen to your children read as much as possible and encourage them to read at home so they can complete their quizzes in school. If you have any questions or queries about reading, then please speak to your child’s class teacher or Mr Spurgeon.
