​The Wellread literacy initiative in Coláiste Bríde

As part of our promotion of literacy, Coláiste Bríde is part of the Wellread initiative.  As a Wellread school we encourage reading for enjoyment throughout the school community.  There have been many events that have taken place in which both students and teachers have got involved including Reading Challenges, teachers sharing their favourite books, our Junior Book Club, visits by authors, Drop and Read and One Book One School for which the whole school community read The Breadwinner together.  As part of this on-going reading initiative all students are encouraged to have a book in their bag at all times. In Coláiste Bríde we believe that developing a habit of reading is beneficial in so many ways to all of our students. 
The presentation below describing the Wellread initiatives in our school was created to support our application for the Wellread National Award.
