In order to support and promote reading for pleasure, we have ‘100 Books to Read at Welholme’ – 100 books to read whilst at the academy. Books are sorted by suitability into year groups, with each year group having a number of books available in classrooms for the children to read over the year. The range includes high-quality fiction, non-fiction, poetry, classic literature and modern literature.
