Reading Award

The Reading Award is a Bosbury School weekly prize which rewards those children who do lots of reading at home either on their own or with parents, grandparents, siblings, aunties, uncles, cousins, friends, babysitters... just about anyone!

 Some of Class 5's favourite reads! As you can see, our oldest pupils absolutely LOVE their reading!

Teaching assistants check each child's yellow reading record weekly, and, if they have read FIVE times or more beyond the expected three times a week with each entry being signed by a parent, guardian or family member, they are given a special reading raffle ticket!

The ticket goes into the pot and, if it is picked out by Mrs. McManus during the draw held in Wednesday afternoon's special Celebration Assembly, the child will receive a special Reading Award prize of a brand new shiny book of their own choosing from the bursting Bosbury book bucket (yes, we love alliteration!).

Pupils who impress with extra-diligent and dedicated reading over a number of weeks may even be awarded bonus raffle tickets, further increasing their chances of winning! 

Congratulations to the lovely young man from Class 1, the brilliant boy from Class 2 and the diligent young lady from Class 4 shown below, posing with their shiny new reads in front of one of the superb backdrops painted by extremely talented Bosbury mum Mrs. Waters for this year's Key Stage 2 summer production, Shrek the Musical Jr, after becoming the very last Bosbury School Reading Award winners of the 2024/25 academic year!

Very well done to this terrific trio of young Bosbury bookworms, and we hope you enjoy reading your new books over the summer holidays including Monster Race and Smiley Shark! 

Final Reading Award Winners of the 2024/25 Academic Year! - 18.07.25

Keep reading everyone over the summer holidays to be in with a chance of being one of the first Reading Award winners in September! Three reads a week is good, but try and really go for it and read FIVE times in one week in order to be put into the hat! Good luck, and Happy Reading Bosbury!

 Do YOU enjoy reading as much as all these young bookworms do? A HUGE thank you to Mrs. Kaye, our very lovely retired school secretary of over thirty years for running our school library on Thursday afternoons (the highlight of many children's week!), and to Friends of Bosbury School (FOBS), who very kindly donated our cosy Key Stage 1 reading shed which our pupils ADORE using at lunchtimes!
