Brand New Reading Area



It’s interesting how some of life’s greatest lessons can be found in children’s literature. And chances are that we did not realise this back when we were kids. Sometimes it’s only when we’re older that we learn to fully appreciate and understand the poignant words from our childhood entertainment.

We have a brand new reading area in school, where our pupils can be inspired and motivated by quotes from the ‘A’ list of children’s literature and then enjoy devouring classic story books whilst relaxing within the alphabet of cushions. 






Keep an eye out for the individual quotes and the terrific titles they came from.
