Over St. John's Reading Champions

Reading Champions

Here are our Reading Champions from Year 5 and Year 6. 

These children submitted such wonderful applications as to why they were suitable for the role of Reading Champion. They had to think about and explain why they wanted to do this role, why they thought they would be good at the role, why reading is important and what stroy they would read during a whole school assembly. Their answers were incredible. Well done.
