We are taking part in Readathon from Monday 28th April until Friday 9th May 2014 and we'd like pupils from all years to take part!
Readathon is the UK'S national sponsored reading event, encouraging children to read for pleasure, while raising money for seriously ill children. Readathon supports three children's charities: Readwell, which provides books and storytelling to children in hospital; CLIC Sargent, giving support to children and young people with cancer and their families; and Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity, which helps seriously ill and disabled children.
We received our pack in the post last week, which included bookmarks and sponsor cards for 30 pupils (we can request more if needed) and a free copy of The Sunday Times bestseller, The Book Thief!
Everyone who takes part will be rewarded with a certificate and the two top readers will receive a £5 book token each. Plus our school will get free books worth 20% of the total money we raise!
Spinebreakers Kingsley, Lilly, Yinka and Dara will be making a list of children who would like to take part, so if you see them in the playground with their sign-up sheet please sign up then or let Miss Sparkes know the next time you visit. You will receive your bookmark and sponsor sheet on Monday
Tuesday 22nd April 2014. Good luck!
