BookTrust has been brought to you by Slough Borough Council's Principal Libraries Outreach Officer, Alison Beer for the attention of All Early Years Settings & Primary Schools.
BookTrust has launched a new online hub for Primary Schools. This hub will feature a host of digital content and resources for literacy leads, teachers and other education professionals to use to support children to keep reading for fun and pleasure as they progress through school.
Visit the page here: www.booktrust.org.uk/primary . It has been designed in consultation with teachers and new content will be added each half term.
Schools can also sign up to the newsletter: https://secure.booktrust.org.uk/newsletters/
Bookstart packs can be requested from Slough Libraries and the programme is now targeted to support low-income families. Accessible packs for children with additional needs and dual language books are also available.
For further information on the packs and how to obtain them, please contact Principal Libraries Outreach Officer, Alison Beer alison.beer@slough.gov.uk
