Summer Reading Challenge

If you want to ensure your child continues reading over the summer holidays then look no further than the Summer Reading Challenge, designed by The Reading Agency, delivered by libraries. Created in partnership with the Science Museum Group, the theme is ‘Gadgeteers’- encouraging your child to read and discover how science is used in everyday things like food, music, fashion and sport. This year, Surrey Libraries are part of a pilot scheme working closely with schools to ensure every child continues discovering the joy of reading over the summer holidays. We are thrilled that 14 schools have signed up to the scheme whereby their local library will provide each pupil with the opportunity to receive a library card and take part in the Summer Reading Challenge. All children aged 4 -11 will be able to sign up for the Challenge, for free, at their local library from Saturday 9th July. Children can set their own goals, but to complete the Challenge they’ll need to read six books before 17th September. Younger children can join in the Mini Challenge, aimed at under 4s. Participants will need to be a member of the library, but joining is free and can be done online or in your local branch. There are lots of reading formats to keep children interested. Fact books, stories, poetry, graphic novels, ebooks, joke books and audiobooks – they all count! When they have finished their books, children can tell library staff what they’ve been reading and receive rewards for how far they’ve come. Children who manage to read 6 books will receive a certificate and a medal. The Challenge is suitable for all reading abilities, so head along to your local library from 9th July to start your child’s summer reading adventure! Not a member? Join online at: www.surreycc.gov.uk/libraries/your-library/join-your-library

Maggie's Surrey Cycle Challenge Surrey Cycle Challenge This fantastic challenge consists of a 50 or 100 mile route around the beautiful Surrey Hills, starting and finishing at Box Hill School, with a refreshment break at our Maggie's centre at the Royal Marsden. Registration for this event is just £25 and includes a free Maggie’s high performance cycling jersey. You can register for this event now by visiting bit.ly/surreycycle2022 Maggie's at the Royal Marsden is a warm and welcoming sanctuary away from the clinical environment of the hospital; providing free information and psychological support to people living with cancer in Surrey, London and beyond www.maggies.org As a charity that receives no government funding, Maggie's relies on events such as our Surrey Cycle to keep our doors open to support people living with cancer. The past two years this event has been a huge success, with it raising £30,000 for Maggie's!

Summer Reads for Children

Children's Books A Head Full of Magic by Sarah Morrell (Hashtag Press) Fleur is used to balancing her two different cultures from her English Mum to her West Indian Nan but when she discovers that she can talk to animals she finds herself in a whole new world! Can her new powers help her take down Celeste 'The Best' the hockey-loving, ankle-smashing new girl, once and for all?

Children's Books Poppy Loves Devon By Gillian Young Poppy wants to befriend anything that moves, but she's never successful. It seems all the other animals find her too big, loud and boisterous. Dad is convinced she needs a playmate, but Poppy's unsure. She enjoys the fuss and attention from her family so much, she is not willing to share. The choice is taken away from her when one day a puppy comes along. However, Poppy soon discovers the puppy is lost and alone. Her big heart and caring nature kicks in when she discovers a monster lurking in a nearby wood. Poppy must act fast to save the farm, her family - and the puppy. Meanwhile, a handsome border collie ticks all the boxes as the ‘perfect' dog - but is he? Poppy Loves Devon follows her pursuit of making friends but not realising what's under her very nose.

Children's Books Baller Boys - Vanessa Taylor (Hashtag Press) Shay and Frankie are best friends and football crazy! They eat, sleep and breathe football (even when they're at school!). They dream about playing football, love a kick-about in the park, watch all the big games on TV... all that's missing in their lives is the chance to play for a real football team. All Cultures United is the best club around for miles and everyone wants to be on the team, including Shay and Frankie. Are they good enough to impress Coach Reece at the AC United trials? Can their friendship survive the competitiveness of football? Will they ultimately fulfil their goal to become Baller Boys?

Children's Books Windrush Child by Benjamin Zephaniah (Scholastic Children’s Books) In this heart-stopping adventure, Benjamin Zephaniah shows us what it was like to be a child of the Windrush generation. Leonard is shocked when he arrives with his mother in the port of Southampton. His father is a stranger to him, it’s cold and even the Jamaican food doesn’t taste the same as it did back home in Maroon Town. But his parents have brought him here to try to make a better life, so Leonard does his best not to complain, to make new friends, to do well at school, even when people hurt him with their words and with their fists.

Early Teens Spellboda by JC Clarke Trust, belief and a little magic… then maybe they could both fly free. Since Trevor’s mum died his dad can barely look at him without yelling.

But then he meets Midge, a peregrine falcon in danger, and finds out he has a gift that could change his life forever. Trevor is thrown into the heart of a magical adventure that could promise freedom – for Midge and for himself – but can he overcome his doubts and fears, and take on the destiny he’s only just discovered?

Preschoolers Tips for keeping safe around water this summer by Puddle Ducks The summer holidays are almost upon us…yippee! At Puddle Ducks, we often get asked about how to safely enjoy swimming away from our classes – especially when on holiday. Well, you won’t be surprised to hear that it isn’t rocket science! Deep down, we bet you all know the answers but we’ll share our thoughts anyway.

First and most importantly – stay safe! When researching your holiday or day trip (or arriving at the destination if you haven’t yet done so) check the safety arrangements of any water-based activities and see if there is lifeguard cover. Children will gravitate towards water – teach them to never enter the water without your supervision. Take time to check the depth, water flow and layout of pools. Follow the pool rules. Check bathing sites for hazards, check the safest places to swim and always read the signs – find out what local warning signs and flags mean.

Come and join our friendly, safe, structured swimming lessons and learn a life-saving skill Experienced in teaching babies to adults Qualified instructors with appropriate rescue qualifications all DBS checked Teaching venues at Banstead Prep School, Banstead, The Priory School, Dorking and St. John’s School, Leatherhead Tel: 01737 211160 Mob: 07827 333510 Email: info@surreyswimschool.co.uk Web: www.surreyswimschool.co.uk

Swim with any children in your care – it’s more fun and you can keep them close and safe. Understand your swimming environment – especially how the depth changes. On beaches stay in a safe depth. Check when the tide will be high and low and make sure that you won’t be cut off from the beach exit by the rising tide. Also, be aware of dangerous ripcurrents – if caught in one, swim parallel to the shore. Inflatable dinghies and lilos are a well-known hazard and can easily be blown out to sea - don’t use them in open water. Children’s vulnerability changes with age but those under 12 months are relatively immobile and entirely dependent on caregivers. They can drown very quickly and in very little water, and in containers that may not be perceived as risks (for example, in a bucket or a toilet). Children who are mobile but too young to recognise danger or to get out of water are also at risk, especially in the absence of barriers and capable supervision. It’s important to stay safe at home too so always supervise bath time (never leave children unattended) and empty the bath as soon as possible after use. If, by chance, we have some hot days here in the UK(!), remember to empty paddling pools and buckets as soon as they have been used and always turn paddling pools upside down once empty. Puddle Ducks hope you have a very happy, sunny (and safe) summer!

Godstone Farm - Summer Holiday Survival Guide Nicola's Top Tips for the Summer Holidays Make a day of it: think about planning a few days out which offer a range of activities and work for various ages and interests, to create a full day of fun. This not only saves on multiple travel and entry costs to different places, but it also means that those quieter days at home feel like well-earned respite for all involved! Get lots and lots of fresh air: yes, even if it’s raining, getting out in the fresh air is a ‘must’ each day to refresh little lungs, and replenish vitamin D, helping to regulate our body clocks and happiness hormones. Provide opportunities to get up-close with wildlife: it’s a well-known fact that giving children a chance to spend time with animals builds confidence and empathy. Learning that our furry friends need lots of love, care and attention is great way to build those all-importance social and emotional skills. Get physical: climbing, jumping, sliding, crawling…at almost any age, soft play can be great way to shake off any pent-up energy in those arms and legs (and offers parents the chance to grab a warm cuppa), or an adventure playground offering zip wires, and climbing walls will get those fast-twitch muscles exercised! A healthy balance of treats and fresh food: if you’re eating out for the day, this can be a chance to talk to children about where our food comes from. “Was it produced locally, how did it grow, who grew it, how long did it take to get your table?”These are wonderful conversation starters which touch on a range of subjects to get brains whirring. Or perhaps it’s a day to pack a picnic? Get little ones thinking about their choice of food and

Summer Holiday Survival Guide Godstone Farm’s CEO, Nicola Henderson, shares her top tips for parents and children to get the most out of those six long weeks of summer! The countdown has begun for many parents, as the summer holidays loom. This can mean weeks of planning, entertaining and coordinating to make extra special memories for our little ones, but it can also be a stressful time for parents, juggling annual leave with tightening purse strings. As a result, Godstone Farm has created not only a hefty programme of events this summer, but also a number of top tips for parents (and kids), to help us all, not just survive the summer holidays, but to thrive! Godstone Farm has forty years of experience planning exciting summer holiday events, but this year, CEO, Nicola Henderson says that they have been working extra hard to ensure it is fun, and a good value destination for families wanting to embrace a day out in the Surrey Hills. Nicola comments: “Over the past two years families have had to contend with lots of cancelled plans and now a real squeeze on household budgets, so we want

give them the responsibility to make some mealtime choices. Try something completely new: summer holidays are a fantastic way to break away from the routine or to even step out of the comfort zone, allowing children to experience “measured risks”. This could mean visiting our reptile enclosure, or maybe even camping under the stars – these experiences give children a chance to face a fear and come out of it beaming with pride from their new-found accomplishments! Escape reality: accept that some of the daily routine is likely to go out of the window, this is a prime time for children to embrace their imagination and have some fun! Perhaps it’s time to dress-up, and let your children pretend to be their favourite storybook character…just see where the next adventure takes them! Nicola Henderson comments: “As parents, we’re often told that these summer holidays are times to cherish; they are fleeting moments to grab hold of before our children grow-up and get on with their own lives. But this can also feel like a lot of pressure, on top of keeping them safe and not breaking the bank. So, we wanted to come up with some tips on how to survive the summer holidays, for parents who want to give their youngsters the chance to discover, explore and play whilst having lots of fun this summer.”
