Being a Reading Sensation
As most of our students read each night, the BEARS reading program is not extra work for students, parents and caregivers or teachers, it is simply a method of calculating the number of nights the students read, and then rewards them at strategic numbers, eg 50, 100, 200 and so on.
Well done to the following students who have read for –
| 50 Nights | |
|---|---|
| Room 2 | Harkeerat A |
| Room 6 | Taylor M |
| 100 Nights | |
| Room 5 | Abbi H, Andre C |
| Room 6 | Seth K |
