Weโd love pupils to get reading this summer to raise funds for our school! All funds raised will go towards new books for all the classes.
Ask friends and family to sponsor your child for every book they read this summer. We politely suggest a sponsorship of 50p per book but sponsors can choose an amount appropriate to the age and reading level of the child. Nursery and Reception children could also include books that are read to them.
Fill in the names of all the books finished between the end of term and the 4th of September on the Reading Log. You can choose local libraries to take books out for free. Use an extra sheet to record your reading if you need to.
After the 4th of September calculate your Total Sponsorship and either: Bring the money to school in an envelope along with this form, or bring the form to school and donate online via our Just Giving page (see QR below to donate online).
The class with the highest total amount raised will win a prize so you must return your form to school for your sponsorship total to be counted.
