As part of the National Year of Reading, we have been holding events with a focus on reading here at Holbeach Bank. Glen and Witham classes have taken part in a virtual author session with Lucy Walters, a storyteller who bring stories and books to life- and that’s exactly what she did for us! During the session the children engaged with Lucy’s storytelling and actively took part in the activities. Since this event, children have been telling their own stories and creating their very own adventures! We have also held the second bookshare event of this year and this time it was the turn of Witham Class. Parents and carers were invited into the academy to listen to a story read aloud before spending valuable time reading with their children and sharing a love of books. The children loved this time and parents and carers commented on how much they enjoyed having the opportunity to come into the academy and take part alongside their children. We look forward to many more events throughout the rest of this year.
