A Word For Everyone in Ireland

The boys and girls from 1st class to 6th class have been set a target of reading a word for everyone in Ireland.

They will achieve this target by reading books which are on the Accelerated Reader system and then passing a quiz on one of the school iPads. So far, the children have read almost 1.5 million words!

The whole school will get a night free of homework when the target of 5.123 million words read is reached.
