READING

At Vittoria School, we have made a great commitment to the provision of reading resources for children in our school. Our school library and class book corners have fantastic new books that all children will get great pleasure from reading.

We are refreshing our home-school reading agreement to reflect our attitude to reading and to share with you our aims for reading.

Vittoria Home-School Reading Agreement

We agree to the following Home Reading support

We will take the time to read together daily to share books and praise our children’s effort.
We will make daily comments in the reading record book to reflect on their hard work.
We will take care of our books and return them to school so that all children can continue to enjoy them.

It is incredibly important that all books are looked after carefully and returned to school. Please help your children to look after school books so that they can be enjoyed by all children. Books should be returned before new books can go home.

Your support at home is invaluable to your children’s progress and attitude to reading. We greatly appreciate your time in helping us reach our goal of all children becoming skilled readers
