This morning, I returned to my former school in Crumlin to facilitate The Gift of Reading, which aimed to promote shared reading over Christmas. Families of Early Start and infant classes joined us, and with Roisin's (HSCL) support, everyone received picturebooks to take home🥰 #reading #picturebooks
