Ms Kelly added she hoped some of the students would find a book that would go on to become one of their firm childhood favourites.
Keen to embed a strong reading ethos into their students the Felpham Way school has already put into practice a number of reading initiatives which are designed to support, develop and challenge students.
These initiatives include everything from pupils reading each day to sixth form reading mentors who support the school’s younger students.
