Just tidying up for the summer and found some lovely notes I've had from pupils over the years. I am proud to have been part of our pupils' reading journeys over the years.
It's that time of year again, The BOOKies' Farewell Party. Curly the Caterpillar was Matilda the Bookworm's stand-in. We reminisced about our activities over the year, presented certificates and book prizes. Keep reading over the summer, the book groups will be back soon.
It's official, we are now a @scottishbktrust Reading School. Couldn't be prouder of all the hard work our Reading Leadership Group have done. #ReadingSchools
We are delighted to announce that Caldervale HS has been awarded the @scottishbktrust's Reading School Accreditation. Thanks to all staff and pupils who have supported us so far. There will be lots more to look forward to in the new session as we continue on our reading journey!
Check out this Reading Schools display in the English corridor ๐ Some fantastic recommendations and reviews to read and hopefully pique your interest!
Wonderful to see my colleague @OLHSLRC nominated for the @CILIPScotland Library & Information Professional of the year. The sheer breadth and quality of her work really highlights the value of having a school library run by professional library staff.

Our S2 pupils also got the chance to read for another 6 minutes in @CaldervaleICT today. Along with the student teacher they took time out to read "The Distracted Teenage Brain" by Alison Pearce Stevens which they all enjoyed. #KeepTheHeid
Mrs Michieโs S3 class taking a 6 minute pledge break for #Keeptheheid. Hopefully lots of book recommendations coming to the library soon. #ReadingSchools
Just a reminder that we have pledged that all of our S1-S3 pupils and school staff will read for 6 minutes. Lots of reading material available in the library if you need something to inspire you. Young Scot points can be redeemed for signing up individually. #ReadingSchools
Our Catalyst helpers joined in too. J K Rowling to Kazuo Ishiguro! Keep reading over the Easter holiday and we will look forward to hearing your recommendations for summer book group activities and reading.
The BOOKies' last session before the Easter break saw some of our members become guest readers for a day as they presented their favourite books. Everything from Greg Heffley to Mr Ripley. Happy Easter everyone.
