Cam Hoptons Read Well Collection and Library Enrichment We worked closely with Nailsworth based charity Read for Good and were part of their Library Project.
We are proud to have our Read Well Collection displayed in our school library, to support our aim to offer Life in all its fullness. This collection has been carefully selected to support mental health and well-being.
How we utilise this resource is evolving and it has already: We are grateful to have received 100 inclusive and representative new books from the Little Box of Books and many new titles from Read for Good.
