Drop Everything And Read

St Paul's launched 'Drop Everything And Read' this week, where every student in Year 7-10 (and staff), will have time to read during one lesson per week. This initiative aims to increase vocabulary, improve writing fluency and make reading a priority in our lives.  The lesson allocated for D.E.A.R will change each week to reduce the impact on learning on any one subject. The students will be notified of the timetable with plenty of notice.

Please ensure your child has a book in their bags each day coming to school. This could be their reading book for class, something they are reading for leisure, a book from the library or a magazine they enjoy. Please make sure the content is appropriate for school. Students can see Ms Martin in the library for some advice on books that may interest them if they need some help.
