Today we launched the Read for Good Readathon and we’d love your child to join in.
It’s been proven that children who read for pleasure are more likely to be successful and happy throughout their lives (OECD, 2002).
The charity Read for Good encourages children to read for pleasure while empowering them to make a change. Pupils can choose whatever they want to read - from comics to classics and audiobooks to blogs - they are not being assessed, it’s all about reading for fun!
Please support your child’s sponsored read as much as you can. They’ll be helping kids in hospitals get books, as well as helping themselves, and our school receives free books worth 20% of our grand sponsorship total, so there really is something in it for everyone.
The sponsored read begins on the 08.05.2024 and will run until the 04.06.2024.
Help your child find sponsors among family and friends. The easiest way to sponsor a child is at https://readathon.my.salesforce-sites.com/sponsor (which family and friends can use too).
For more information, check out your child’s sponsorship card and visit www.readforgood.org.
Thank you for your support – helping your child to keep reading, raising and being amazing!
Happy reading!
