ST. PAUL'SLove Reading

On Thursday 4th March, we celebrated all things reading! With a whole school focus on the story 'Rain Before Rainbows' by Smriti Hall and David Litchfield, we drew parallels between this wonderful story (written in the first lockdown of March 2020) and that of the current struggles we are faced with. The book provided us with hope that better days are yet to come but also helped us to feel thankful for what we have. The gorgeous words and illustrations also inspired us to do our very own creative writing and pieces of Art. And of course, we didn't let the opportunity of dressing up pass us by either!

At St. Paul’s, books are at the heart of everything we do, so our mission is to get as many books into children's homes as possible. To do this, we have teamed up with a local charity called Own Books.

One of our main missions at St. Paul’s is to help every child see themselves as readers and develop a love of exploring different types of literature. Reading books is a magical experience and often gives us a place to go when we have to stay where we are!
