Neston High Reading Champions Visit Neston Primary School

During May, Neston High School's dedicated Reading Champions visited the Year 6 pupils of Neston Primary to help encourage them to read and write for pleasure.

The Reading Champions are Year 9 and 10 boys who act as reading role models to younger students at Neston High.

Harry Mates, Kevin Exell, Angus Seal, Oliver Thomas, Joshua Mason, Benjamin Mason, Andrew Halfhead and Jay Harvey are now on a mission to extend this role to younger pupils in the local community and so far this is going incredibly well.

The boys presented an extended assembly based on the importance of reading to all of Neston Primary Schools Year 6 pupils which was followed by a Literacy Workshop in which the boys demonstrated strategies for choosing the right reading books and writing an amazing story.

This was a great morning for all involved and Neston High School's Librarian Miss Suzie Evans and English Teacher Miss Laura Jolley are extremely proud of what the boys have achieved.

Laura Jolley says: "It is a pleasure to work with our Reading Champions and to see younger pupils become really engaged with reading as a result of working with the boys.

"Due to the success of today's visit we look forward to visiting Neston Primary School again with the Reading Champions in September."
