On your marks, get set...Manchester Readathon 2019!
There are now a record-breaking 104 schools (over 36,000 children) all joining forces for a glorious fortnight of reading and celebrating the power of stories in our first-ever Manchester city-wide Readathon, starting Monday 17th June.
Readathon is all about students having fun and reading on their own terms, in their own time. Please encourage your child to choose whatever they feel like reading - not just books - newspapers, magazines, audio books, or read a book together - it all counts! The website features fun games, videos and other activities to inspire them.
