Accelerated Reading Awards
On Friday 1st October, pupils from Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 celebrated the great effort made during the second full week of our Accelerated Reading programme. Ordinarily, these awards would take place as a whole school community in the assembly hall. However, this year our accelerated reading awards are a little different as we now have separate awards in the classrooms on a Friday afternoon.
Firstly, one pupil from each class received the “Star Reader” award for making a particular effort with their reading. This week, the winners were:
- Shea Breen (P3)
- Gareth Corr (P4)
- Shona Quinn P5)
- Sarah McKenna (P6)
- Jack O‘Reilly (P7)
