READERS ARE LEADERS AT PNPS
The annual PNPS Readers are Leaders day held during Book Week was a complete success, thoroughly enjoyed by the children who were read to by various invited guests from the community. This year the Grade 7’s were able to listen to Cape Town Mayor Patricia de Lille, who read extracts from Nelson Mandela – Long Walk to Freedom. After the readings, the children were given the opportunity to ask the readers about their occupations and favourite books. The emphasis is on
the importance of reading and why it is an integral part of their future success. A few of the guests did a lucky draw where some learners won books and other prizes. Max Schutte took the Grade 2’s through the construction of a story of their own making, and how illustrating with pictures adds to the story. The school also has a dress up day where children can dress up as their favourite characters; and another day where parents come and read to the classes.
Invited Readers from the Left: Candice Botha, Ryan Termorshuizen, Tracey Fraser, Sean Fraser, Lucy O’Connell, Gill Haiden, Brandan Reynolds, Patricia de Lille, Glynnis Schutte, Rose Casserley, Max Schutte, Kosma Von Maltitz, Rustum Fortune and Twala Ngambi.
