Librarians OLSJ
We are pleased to announce our librarians this year at OLSJ!
As you can see from the photo below - all of Year 6 put their name forward, which is testament to how much OLSJ love to read! Many of these children were also our librarians in Year 5!
Our librarians play a very important role in our school - they don't just tidy books and our library bus! They are ambassadors that promote reading for pleasure across the school.
They recommend reads to other children, keep our library up to date with book reviews, helping with displays, scanning books and supporting our younger students with accessing books on the bus. They read to other pupils on the bus as part of storytime and support Miss Green with organising topic books for across the school. They will also support the development of our 'Blue Peter Book Club' this year.
Teachers across our partnership have been involved in National Literacy Trust training to support development of school libraries and reading for pleasure. They will be working with our librarians to share their learning from this course. Watch this space - we are hoping to plan a summit between all of the partnership schools for some 'librarian training', sharing our favourite texts and books with each other, recommending reads and authors, as well as a potential trip too!
