Reading is one of life’s greatest pleasures; it is good for your mental health and for your soul. Not only that, but students who read regularly and enjoy reading are proven to do much better in exams than those who do not (thus increasing their life chances and future prospects). This Autumn, we are therefore giving you the gift of reading!
This year, our selection of books has been chosen by our student body in celebration of Black History Month. There is an awesome selection to choose from celebrating the literary heritage of the global black community.
All students (and staff) will choose one book from the selection here. Your book will arrive after half term. Read it, enjoy it, talk about it with others who have also read it (and with me!), swap it with someone who chose a different book or keep it to read it again. We’ve suggested books for Ks3, KS4 and Sixth Form but you can choose a book from any list whatever year group you are in.
This year’s Book Club is made possible by the kind support of the Friends of Holyport College.
Please do take some time to have a look at this year’s selections. Students will choose their books during tutor time later this week.
