Year 7: Readathon


Right, I've already given out about 30 sponsorship forms and that only covers 3 tutor groups so far, so I'm really impressed by your enthusiasm. Those of you that are taking part, here's what you need to do now.


1. Make sure you show your Parents/Carers the letter so they know what you are doing.

2. You need to decide what you are going to read and fill in the top part of the sponsorship form. Remember, it doesn't matter what you read, just that you set yourself a bit of a challenge. You can read books, magazines, newspapers, listen to books on tape, have stories read to you... anything as long as it is a bit more than you might normally read.

3. Once you have set yourself the challenge you need to collect some sponsors. It is really important that you only ask friends and family members- your safety is the most important thing. You have until half term to collect as many as possible.

4. You've picked your books; got the sponsors now over half term, all you have to do is the reading itself.

5. Finally- you need to collect the money from your sponsors and hand in to either Miss Edwards (in the library) or me (Miss Cutts, room 58)


With 8 year 7 tutor groups taking part, I have high hopes that we can raise a really good amount for the Readathon. There will be a prize for the tutor group that raises the most AND the individual that raises the most.


But more importantly- enjoy the books, stories and texts that you read.


Thanks for your help year 7.
