World Book Day 2022 Be Proud, Read Aloud Competition Winners

We had an amazing 140 entries in our Be Proud, Read Aloud competition: video or audio clips of children reading a favourite book extract with fluency, expression and enjoyment. We wondered how many children would enter but we needn’t have worried.

We were pleased and proud of every entry: standards were very high and reflect so well on the children and the support that they are getting from home. Thank you to everyone who entered – you all read fantastically well and, where appropriate, the costumes and settings really delighted us! We are especially grateful to M in Y2 whose wonderful early entry was used to inspire other children.

The class winners were:

Nursery: T reading The Tiger Who Came to Tea and Oliver reading The Gruffalo
