A Love of Reading

At Stanford in the Vale CE Primary School, we are huge reading fans. We focus on opening our chidren's eyes to new books, new authors and experiences; getting ourselves lost in another world.

We are always looking for new books - have a look at our Amazon wishlist:

Book Vending Machine

Oxfordshire Vending donated and installed a book vending machine at our school. As we all know regular reading is key for a child to be a good reader and writer. The children get a reading certificate when they fill in a double page spread of their reading diaries. When this happens their name also goes into a class draw and at the end of every half term a name is drawn from each class. The drawn names are given a token to put into the vending machine to obtain a book.

We really want to thank Oxfordshire Vending aka Aiden's Mummy and Daddy in Foundation along with Granny and Grampy and Nana.
