Chitty Chitty Bang Bangs Magical Reading Tour - KS1 Autumn Term Challenge

CALLING ALL KS1 PUPILS!

Enter the Autumn Term challenge by picking up your own Chitty Chitty Bang Bang reading log from the school library.

Completing your log could not be easier...
Just colour in a segment on the fuel gauge for every 10 minutes of reading. Once all 60 segments have been coloured you will have read for a total of 10 hours, completing your log!

Once your log is complete, simply hand it in to Miss Sparkes. All entries will be placed into a raffle box, and at the end of the Autumn Term one name will be chosen at random. The winning pupil will receive a goody bag full of books and prizes.

Get started by picking up a reading log today!
