St Matthew’s celebrates success in summer reading challenge

Mrs Sime, the headteacher of St Matthew’s Catholic Primary School, Clubmoor, initiated a reading challenge at the end of the academic year. The challenge, centred around ‘Reading in Diverse Places’, was to promote a love for reading and literacy among students.
Students were encouraged to read more widely and frequently, and this challenge aimed to instil good reading habits in students. Regular reading improves vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking skills.
The overarching goal of this challenge was to nurture and cultivate a deep love for reading among students. This initiative has laid the perfect foundation for the launch of the upcoming school library, where pupils will be enveloped in the enchanting world of literature, further aligning with the school’s mission to “Love, Learn, and Shine Together with Jesus.”
St. Matthew’s Catholic Primary School extends its heartfelt appreciation to all participants, supporters, and well-wishers and is thrilled about the development of its new school library.
