Southill Primary is proud to be part of The Chesil Literacy Project and to work with other local schools to improve literacy outcomes for all our pupils.

This year, Chesil schools came together to organise a jam-packed week of booky brilliance which also incorporated World Book Day. There were different events across Chesil schools including dressing up, story hat competitions, decorated classrooms, book swaps, quizzes, podcasts as well as live interactive sessions with poets and authors. Year 9 pupils visited their former primary schools to share a story and parents were invited in for bacon butties and cups of tea to enjoy a book with their child. All schools did a fantastic job of raising the profile of Reading for Pleasure. Awesome!

Here are a few pictures of some of the events …
