At Newnham Croft, we are always looking to update our reading books so that our classes have access to a wide range of high-quality texts that both stretch children’s learning and reflect the diverse cultures within our school community.
If you would like to support our ongoing effort to provide even more fantastic books, please take a look at the new wish lists we’ve started creating.
So far, we have lists for Year 3, 4, 5 and 6, mainly covering the topics they are working on. We would be delighted if you might consider buying a book to add to our collection (other booksellers are, of course, available!). For each online list there is also a Google Doc to fill in please to help us keep track and make sure we don't end up with 27 of the same book.
