A New Era in School Library Enthusiastically Welcomed by Students of All Ages

In a heart-warming development that has stirred excitement and joy among students and teachers alike, Year 5 students have been entrusted with the esteemed responsibility of being library monitors at Burtonwood Community Primary School. This initiative has led to a flourishing love for reading among children from all year groups.

The school library, once a quiet sanctuary for books and knowledge, has now transformed into a vibrant hub of enthusiastic readers. With Year 5 students at the helm, the library is abuzz with excitement as younger students eagerly participate in reading sessions and explore the world of books and wonder of literature. This innovative approach not only promotes a love for reading but also fosters a sense of responsibility and leadership among the students.

The idea behind this empowering project is to encourage a deeper appreciation for reading and allow students to take ownership of their school's learning environment. The Year 5 students have risen to the occasion, showing their dedication to the role of library monitors and inspiring their peers in the process. It is so rewarding to see students from all year groups actively engaged with books.  The initiative has also created a sense of unity and mentorship among the students. Year 5 students have embraced their roles as leaders, helping younger students choose appropriate books, organizing reading circles, and even suggesting their favourite reads.

Well done Year 5!
