Summer Book Boost
Mrs Gorrell has asked me to share this opportunity for children to take part in some very exciting events over 
the summer. Adults just need to scan the QR code and enter an email address to receive exciting activities 
about books and authors. Reading Rocks is a great company. We get regular books from them throughout the 
year and it brings so much joy to the children when they see the new books that have been sent.
‘Children who choose to read regularly are more likely to have better job prospects, higher earnings and 
stronger social skills later in life.’ (The Reading Agency, 2015)
