Years 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 – Sponsored Read
Dear Parent/Guardian,
To celebrate and encourage a lifelong love of reading at home and school, we will be running a sponsored read between Monday 18th October and Sunday 24th October.
In order to support your child’s early reading development in the best possible ways we are trying to raise money to fund the purchase of a new scheme of high quality home-school readers.
In the past you have helped us to raise a significant amount of money to support our young readers and we are very grateful for your ongoing support. Following the unprecedented interruptions to education over the past two years, there has never been a time when your generosity, and that of friends and family, has been more important to our school community.
Please help us to enhance our reading resources for pupils by encouraging your child to spend a small amount of time each day either reading to themselves, to others, or being read to. They can read books, comics, magazines, newspapers, menus, websites, recipes, poems, leaflets, instructions – anything with words!
We hope that you are able to support our sponsored listen. Every single £ will help us to fund vital new early reading resources. Your child will come home with a sponsor form. They will also receive a listening log to record the minutes they have spent listening, this will be given to them in class.
After the sponsored read, please send all the sponsorship money that your child has raised to the school by Tuesday 2nd November.
We look forward to having lots more books for your child to read, share and enjoy.
