Reading

Calling all bookworms!

I hope that you are well during this time and are keeping yourself safe.  It has been wonderful to see your many responses and pieces of work for your daily VIPERS reading work.  Thank you for engaging with this and we hope that it will continue to help you develop a love of reading.  

We are aware that many of you will be keen to get some new reading books to enjoy so please see the links below that will allow you to access either online e-books or via Derbyshire Library Service.  

Additionally you can come into school on a Monday and Friday each week between 1:00 & 2:00 pm to change your school book in our library.

• The library service is also offering a click and collect service during the national lockdown. More information about this service can be found here https://www.derbyshire.gov.uk/leisure/libraries/library-updates/library-updates.aspx
