· A regional National Literacy Trust Project Manager available to offer support and consultation throughout the process

Resources and events

· 400 high quality texts for all primary ages from Puffin

· 100 high quality texts for all primary ages from independent publishers

· An online audiobook library and playing device

· A reading zone kit worth £750 

· Colourful resources to boost your library – including pupil librarian badges & display materials

· Website with downloadable course material and monthly newsletter packed with advice, resources and partner offers

Avonmouth Library

Every Friday classes take it in turn to walk to the local library in Avonmouth. This gives them the opportunity to be able to access books that we do not have in school and develop their love of reading outside of the school setting. We hope that they will then contiune to use the library with their families and enjoy reading with them.
