Have you seen our Book Tardis?!
Come and swap one of your books for a new one from our Book Tardis recently opened by the Mayor of Redditch.
Our Book Tardis is in the main Reception area full of lovely books to swap.
Batchley First School is a Reading School
We are trying lots of new initiatives and projects to raise the profile of reading in our school.
Reader Raffle
Every second time you read at home you will receive a raffle ticket. Place it in the box in the library and in assembly on Tuesday names will be drawn for a variety of prizes. The more you read the more tickets you will receive. Good luck!
St David's House
Some Year 1 children recently went to St David's house, a sheltered housing facility, to read and share books with their residents. It was such a success, and enjoyed by all involved, we intend to repeat this again soon.
Buddy Reading
Every half term we have been reading with a 'buddy'.
Children in Reception to Year 4 move to another class and share a book with an older or younger child.
Reading Quiz
Have you had a go at our Reading Quiz? Every week there are new questions out up around school. Pop your answers in the box in the Library.
Coming Soon..........
