Reading week inspires lifelong curiosity

During our annual reading week, the Bachpan community transformed classrooms, corridors, and the library into spaces for imagination, conversation, and shared discovery.

Creating joyful reading habits

The week featured author visits, reading challenges, story circles, and quiet reading time in the library. Students were encouraged to explore genres beyond their usual favourites and to share recommendations with classmates.

Teachers also helped students connect reading with empathy, vocabulary growth, confidence, and self-expression. Younger students enjoyed read-aloud moments, while older students led book talks and peer recommendations.

Parent Tip

Set aside 15 minutes each evening for shared reading. Let children choose one book and parents choose another.

What made this year special

  • Morning story circles for younger students
  • Student-led book recommendations in every classroom
  • A community book swap that welcomed families
  • Library displays curated by students and teachers

Reading gives students a path to empathy, knowledge, and confidence.

    This was such a wonderful week. My daughter came home excited to tell us about her book recommendations.

    The classroom reading wall was a lovely idea. It helped us continue the conversation at home.
