Reading Star Moment Winners

At SFDS we take great pride in developing independent, fluent readers who have a real thirst for and a love of books. It was such a pleasure to see how enthusiastic our ‘Star Reading Moment’ children were to select their own book as a reward for their dedication to reading. Many of the children chose their book based on a book that they had previously enjoyed or a new release by one of their favourite authors. Alfie picked ‘Quest’ by Aaron Becker as he had recently studied the first of the trilogy ‘Journey’ during lessons in Year 4 and couldn’t wait to discover what happened next.

We were also very lucky to be gift two books by the staff as they recognised how well behaved our pupils are. ‘Starfell Willow Moss and the Lost Day’ by Dominique Valentine and ‘The Highland Falcon Thief’ by M.G.Leonard & Sam Sedgman are this month’s best sellers and are available in our school library now. Good luck next half term. We can’t wait to see who the next winners are!
