Reading Buddy

Here at Adswood Primary School, we promote a love of reading.

We strongly believe that reading is not only an essential life skill but also opens the mind to a world far beyond what the eye can see.

Our reading buddies, who have been appointed by Miss Richardson, all demonstrate a passion for reading which they want to share with others.

Every week, our reading buddies go and read to, listen to, share a book with younger children in school. Together, they develop an enjoyment for reading, a belief in themselves as a reader and listener of books and achieve a love of reading which will stay with them for life.

Being a reading buddy gives them the opportunity to reinforce our school vision, ‘Enjoy, Believe, Achieve.’
