Reading / Darllen: We actively encourage regular reading both in school and at home.  Child will undertake whole-class reading activities as part of their reading in school and those children who need further support will be listened to individually.  We will send a reading book home weekly so that they can practise reading for fluency and comprehension with you.  Please return their book to school once they have read it and we will swap it on a Friday to go home over the weekend- we do not have specific days for specific children.
