Children's Book Project
Pop-Up Bookshop

We are working with Children's Book Project to host a termly pop-up bookshop at which every child across the school may select a book of their choice to take home and keep - all free! 

The Children’s Book Project seeks to tackle book poverty and to give every child the opportunity to own their own book. They believe in empowering children to choose a book they are motivated to read and in the power of reading communities. This ties in wonderfully with Swaffield's school-wide focus on reading for pleasure. 

Book ownership has been directly linked with improved mental health amongst children and a greater propensity to read for pleasure, whilst reading fluency itself has a significant impact on children’s successful progression through education. 

This term's pop-up bookshop has a festive, sparkly theme as you can see below:
