Oakleigh House World book day! 📚

We were delighted to showcase our love of literacy at Oakleigh House School last week. 

Each of our classes fully immersed themselves in the magic of literature and as you can see, we had a real variety of fictional and non-fictional characters represented! 

Reading is fundamental to our children's development and is something that we incorporate into our curriculum from nursery onwards. Our children are learning to read from an early stage, and we believe that this fosters a genuine love of reading.
