The Mayor
We
welcomed The Worshipful the Mayor of Islington to St Joseph’s today.
He
came to launch the
SUMMER READING CHALLENGE
The
children gave him a standing ovation as he walked through the school on his way
to our library.
The Mayor was very impressed with our library, which is at the heart of the school and provides an inspiring and calm place for our children to read. He particularly liked our cosy book nook under-the-stairs with cushions galore. Perfect to escape into a book!
The children gave his Worship a guided tour or our library
and found out that his favourite book is ‘Oliver Twist’.
The Mayor spoke to the children about the importance of
reading and especially to keep reading over the Summer.
Join in with the SUMMER READING CHALLENGE
and
The Mayor will be back to give
every child a certificate and gold medal in the Autumn.
So get reading and we can celebrate together in the Autumn.
Go to https://summerreadingchallenge.org.uk/ to find out more and help keep your
child reading over the Summer.
It’s free and fun!
