Celebrating Young Readers

Shore Senior Library Reading Award

The English and Library Departments are excited to extend their heartfelt congratulations to the 80 students from Years 7 to 10 who have been awarded the Shore Senior Library Reading Award Certificate for Term 1. This award celebrates the students who have read the highest number of books in their respective Wide Reading classes, showcasing their dedication and love for reading.

In addition to their certificates, the award-winning students have received a five-dollar credit to be used at the tuckshop, a small token of appreciation for their efforts. The award is part of a new initiative that will be given every term, encouraging students to cultivate a consistent reading habit, which is essential to success in English!

Reading is an important habit that all students should engage with. Reading nurtures important skills such as writing and vocabulary, which are fundamental to academic success and effective communication. When students immerse themselves in diverse narratives, they enhance their ability to think critically, empathise with others, and articulate their thoughts clearly. The English and Library Departments believe that cultivating a love of reading from a young age sets the foundation for lifelong learning. It is encouraging to see so many students embracing reading and demonstrating such enthusiasm for literature.

To our consistent readers: your passion for reading is commendable, and you serve as an inspiration to your peers. The English and Library Departments are proud of your accomplishments and encourage you to continue exploring the vast world of literature. Keep up the excellent work, and may your love for reading continue to grow.

We look forward to seeing even more students discover the joys and benefits of reading in the coming Terms.

Happy reading!
