Page Turners Project

Opportunity for our sixth form students (currently 21 students) who read regularly with pupils from the Granard Primary School to access training through the charity ‘Page Turners’. This is a new collaboration with Hornsby House School.

Aims

- To offer our Year 12 students the opportunity to volunteer as readers with Granard School.

- To offer our sixth form students the chance to participate in a dedicated workshop, to develop their skills in pedagogy with Junior School readers.

- To support our local school with their literacy strategies and support their reading program.

Background

- Our students have been volunteering with local schools for many years. This is an extension of this project to equip students with the skills to really add value in the Primary Classroom.
