School Summer Reading Challenge

By now, you should have received our Broadford school library Summer Reading Challenge, which also includes information about this year's Get Caught Reading challenge. Take a look below:

Our challenges are always bursting with ideas and fun ways of keeping you reading during your break away from school. 

Make sure you hand your completed challenge into the school library when you return to school by Friday 5th September 2025 for a special certificate!

Get Caught Reading!

Like previous years, we would love to see you reading during the summer break, whether it be at home or far away. Take part by sending one photo (with your full name and new class) of yourself caught reading somewhere exciting over the summer to: 

Instagram: @broadfordlibrary  Email: library@broadford-havering.sch.uk 

You can view your photo on our Library Instagram Page, so please head over there to give us a follow.

We will choose one winner and one runner-up from each Key Stage. These lucky ones will be rewarded with a prize. All entries need to be in by Wednesday 3rd September. Winners will be announced the following week.

Why have a reading competition?

At Broadford Primary School, we believe in developing a culture where children are intrinsically motivated to read for pleasure. We believe in encouraging them to read both inside and beyond school and that the most effective way to promote reading is to work in partnership with parents and families.
