Reading

At East Farleigh we are working hard to develop a community of readers who are hooked on books. There are lots of exciting things happening in school to help us achieve this vision.

We are embracing an exciting new way of teaching reading and have enjoyed sharing this with you in our reading workshops. This approach is called 'Hooked on Books' and is based on the work of Jane Considine. We will continue to update parents as this develops in school.

Our library redevelopment and reading area projects are progressing well and we will share photos once these are complete.

Stay tuned for regular updates and information about reading at East Farleigh Primary School. Our parent reading guides will be appearing soon...

If you have any questions about reading please contact your child's teacher or our English Lead Mrs Dyer.
