Well done to all the @chapterone_uk children in Y2 & Y3 today who had a “meet and greet” with their reading volunteers - it was lovely to meet Marta (our programme manager) and engage with the volunteers that children only normally hear and not see over their laptops! 👩🏻‍💻📚

This week, our Programme Managers have been busy training teachers across the country. One of our teachers said: “If ever I'm having a bad day, I just go and listen to one of the pupils reading with their volunteer on the laptop and I feel better, it's a beautiful thing!”😍
