Dear Parent/Carers,

To celebrate and encourage a lifelong love of reading at home and school, we will be running a sponsored read between Monday 2nd March 2020 and Sunday 8th March 2020.

The project is being organised in conjunction with our local Usborne Organiser, and all the money raised will go towards brand new books for our school.

The money raised can be used to purchase Usborne books for our school. On top of this, we will earn up to 60% in EXTRA FREE BOOKS.

Please help us to enhance our reading resources for pupils by encouraging your child to spend a small amount of time each day either reading to themselves, to others, or being read to. They can read books, comics, magazines, newspapers, menus, websites, recipes, poems, leaflets, instructions – anything with words!

On Monday 2nd March we will be giving the children their sponsorship forms and a reading log to record the minutes they have spent reading. However if they want to start collecting sponsors over the weekend, they can.

A Community Book Pledge has also been attached – if you know of any businesses that may want recognition by donating a small amount of money for books too then please pass this letter on.  More letters available from the school office.

After the sponsored read, please send all the sponsorship money that your child has raised to the school by Friday 13th March 2020. Cheques should be made payable to the school.

We look forward to having lots more books for your child to read, share and enjoy.

For more information, please contact us at school.

With best wishes

Nettleham Church of England Aided Junior School
