To celebrate World Book Week, the Senior Readership Team at Leigh Primary School will be taking on a sponsored 10-hour Readathon to raise funds for a beautiful wooden Storytelling Chair for our new outdoor classroom.
We are aiming to raise £629.99 to purchase this specially crafted chair, which will create a dedicated space for teachers to bring stories to life and inspire our youngest learners through interactive story sessions. By providing a nurturing and immersive storytelling environment, the chair will help foster a love of reading, support early literacy skills, and lay the foundations for a lifelong appreciation of books and learning.

If we are fortunate enough to raise beyond our target, any additional funds will go towards supporting further outdoor learning adventures for our children.
Every page turned during our Readathon will help bring this special space to life — thank you for supporting us!

The Senior Readership Team will be reading in pairs throughout the day, from 8:00am to 6:00pm. 10 hours, what an impressive target! Together, they’ll be sharing a wonderful range of stories, from exciting adventures and magical tales to inspiring journeys and heart-warming classics.
