Colchester TRG – an update from Bronya Patmore

Colchester's first OU RfP reading group session got off to a flying start at Brinkley Grove Primary School. Twenty eight teachers shared their enthusiasm for their top three children's books and fantastic ideas for promoting reading for pleasure in their schools. Everyone enjoyed reflecting on their practice and discussing reading for pleasure. The lucky dip of a wide selection of children's texts caused much excitement when the books were unwrapped! A Facebook page has been set up for members to stay connected and continue to share books and ideas. Since the first meeting, leaders from other schools have emailed to enquire if there are any more places on this valuable CPD.
