How does it work?
Students can earn a golden coin as a reward, they put them into the book vending machine and choose a book they would love to read! Here we are demonstrating!

Some new dyslexia friendly books for our library! I just couldn’t resist!

[Mrs Stewart @MrsStewartPPS]

Our dyslexic friendly library in the support base is starting to take shape!
It will soon be ready for children to start borrowing from!

Author Natasha Iregbu very kindly dropped in her lovely children’s mindfulness stories into Prestonfield this week! They have some fantastic ideas to support children to slow down and enjoy the world around them and a real plus is that they are dyslexic friendly too!
Thank you
