I'd like to thank you for all the materials you sent, especially the posters and ideas for assembly, all have come in very useful.

What people are saying about Readathon

I love the fact that you're raising money doing something that I love. I'm going to try to beat my own record from last year which was 23 books.

I had all but given up on trying to get my daughter (Year 4) to read but this has given her the push she needed. We can't stop her now. Thank you."
