Reading throughout the school

Our books are carefully selected to provide the children with vocabulary rich, engaging stories or interesting non-fiction that they can link to the world around them.  Below are the core texts that children will be reading as a class each term.  As well as these books, they will choose their individual reading books that they can read at home and they will be read different class stories for daily storytime.
