All Saints’ Primary in Airdrie have recently achieved the prestigious Gold Reading Schools Award from the Scottish Book Trust.
All Saints’ has been on this journey for a few years, encouraging and motivating not just the children, but the whole school community to read for enjoyment.
The All Saints’ Reader Leaders, a group of children and staff, have worked hard to change the reading culture and attitudes across the school, where reading is viewed as a treat rather than a chore.
From CAR (chill and read) time, reading challenges, book fairs, the creation of 2 in-school libraries, comic club, visits and projects with Airdrie Library and support from local businesses and establishments, All Saints’ have found the fun and joy in reading and actively share and talk about books they enjoy.
All Saints’ are proud to be a Gold Reading School.
