Introducing our new patrons (partners of Reading…
Steve Barlow and Steve Skidmore
We are so excited to welcome our new patrons. They have been making some plans with us for ways to really embed our approaches to Reading, particularly Oracy and use of language. We want all our children to value the art of communication. Miss G is liaising with them-and we celebrated with a fantastic launch in September 2017.

Jonathan Emmett
We have really enjoyed working with this best selling author as our Patron of Reading.Jonathan has enabled us to have visits from the library van as well as visiting school, and helping us to produce amazing writing and illustrations. He also ensured that we ignited a passion for Reading and worked across our whole community to help us understand the mind of a writer. He also really supported the school’s commitment to visual Literacy and appreciation of the value of Picture Books in exploring meaning. We are very grateful for all of his hard work, and loved our picture book World Cup as his send off. I’m sure we’ll see him again,
