What did you read over summer?

Welcome back! What have you read during the last two or three months? OLA needs your family summer reading recommendations to make into a booklet and share with other families in this National Year of Reading.

Over the holiday I hope many of you will have taken part in the OLA Family Summer Reading Group, by sharing books with one another, and then listing what you read, with a brief comment, on the form sent to you in the July mailing. Now is the time to return it, but if it's lost then please write your family's favourite summer reads on a piece of paper and ask your daughter to bring it to the Library.

Later in the term we plan to hold a special book-themed social evening, with surprises, in the Library and reveal the favourites of each year group.

This term in the school library will also feature the start of the Reading Olympics and reading buddies, book chains, a book swap, 'poetree', Kids' Lit Quiz heats, and 101 dalmatians....
