In honour of the New Lunar Year, the students had the chance to browse through a number of different picture and chapter books in the Chinese language. They listened to legends about the Spring Time festival of China, and how the order of animals in the Chinese zodiac came about.

 

At lunchtime, we had a guest, dressed in traditional costume, who read to the students in Chinese and translated the story for the non-Chinese speakers. Special thanks to Polly, a student teacher for agreeing to be our first multicultural storyteller.

Summer reading is an important, enjoyable activity that students can do during the holidays to help avoid the 'Summer Slide' in reading achievements gained during the school year.

 

“Studies have shown that children who read for pleasure from a young age are much more likely to do well throughout their academic life.” 

 

Students have access to borrow books 24/7. The digital library never closes.
