At Pensilva Primary School, we have passionate readers who have many great ideas for improving the reading experience at school even further. To enable the children to communicate their ideas and be fully involved in developing our reading for pleasure culture we have set up 'READING CHAMPIONS'.
All children in Years 4, 5 and 6 and (Year 3s in the summer term) can volunteer to train as Reading Champions.
Reading Champions are a group of student volunteers who work with Mrs. Sissons and Miss Tubby to look at ways to make reading opportunities at Pensilva Primary School even better.
Reading Champions helped design and organise the fantastic library that our school community can enjoy today. They contributed to the development of reading areas in each classroom. They give their time to maintain the library for us all to enjoy.
They also enthusiastically volunteer their time to support with lunchtime reading clubs - reading with their peers or younger children or completing reading enrichment activities such as creating character puppets and story telling!
They are a great asset.
