Reception- 'I Love Libraries' Visit to Haydock Library

Spring 2 2023

The children learned so much about a library and how books are organised. We looked at the difference between a non-fiction book and a fiction book. We listened to the story read to us by librarians which was a twist on Wheels on the Bus. It was called "Whales on the Bus." We then chose our own stories to look at too! Finally, we participated in a quiz to guess the character.

Year 3 enjoyed their  ‘I love to read’ library session at the local library this term. The children listened to a story about a little girl who was always nervous but when she made friends with a special dog he helped her feel confident to join in. We spent time exploring what the library has to offer and the process of joining a library. The children looked at all the different types of books they could come and read at library and were looking forward to coming back to loan their favourites!

Year 6 - 'I Love Libraries' Visit to Haydock Library 

Spring 1 2023

Today Year 6 enjoyed a walk to our local library where we took part in their ‘I Love Libraries’ session. The children were reminded about the fantastic services available at the library, they showed  off their author knowledge during a mini quiz and had the pleasure of enjoying some quite time and a roam around the wonderful range of books available to them. I am sure this visit will only encourage and develop their love of reading even further :-)
