To support literacy in school we are encouraging children to join the Winter Mini Reading Challenge 2020 which aims to keep children, aged 4-11, reading through the winter holidays. It is particularly important this year to maintain reading skills and learning due to the disruption to education caused by Covid-19.

 

This year the Winter Mini Reading Challenge is online. To take part children simply read 3 books or more of their choice and record, rate and review them at www.wintermini.org.uk. Each child is then rewarded with a certificate and virtual badge. The website also features fun activities and competitions as well as book recommendations.

 

With public libraries closed it may be challenging to access physical books. Therefore, it is time to turn to eBooks and eAudio. Our local library services nationwide give us FREE access to thousands of titles.

 

We would encourage you to assist your children in joining your local library at this time and use the FREE eBook platforms. Please find below links for our local libraries of Islington, Haringey and Camden.
