Funding grant helping Mansfield school to get children reading more
These are kept in a bookcase that is opened up every Wednesday after school and children come with their families to choose a new book each week.
Each child has a card that is stamped every time they swap their book to keep a tally of how much they have read and to build up to rewards for the more they read.
