What a wonderful morning ! Meeting Queen Camilla was extraordinary and being part of the #coronationlibraries was a real honour. Shirehampton Primary now has the 1st of these libraries - it’s cosy and filled with so many books as well as an actual librarian. Hurrah!!

A great start to the new year with our launch of the #NationalYearOfReading2026 today. We spent the INSET thinking about being reading role models, book chat and inclusive reading options. Then a pop up bookshop and some fab book corner makeovers. @Literacy_Trust

[Mary Rees @Book_Craic]

I’m back to work tomorrow after a very relaxing Christmas break. I’ve enjoyed lots of time reading some incredible books! I will be taking all of these in to school, some for our staff reading corner and most for our library. #ReadingRocks #YearOfReading

Day 5 #NationalYearOfReading2026
I read The Story Orchestra: A Midsummer Night's Dream to my 5 year-old. It was her choice. She was a bit like a naughty sprite before bed but this musical book calmed her down. Engaging and magical illustrations by @jesscotickle #GoAllIn2026
