At St. Thomas of Canterbury, we believe that reading is the gateway to learning and a vital skill for life. Our aim is to nurture a deep love of reading by placing high-quality texts at the heart of our curriculum.
We carefully select literature that inspires curiosity, builds vocabulary, and broadens understanding of the world. Through engaging and progressive reading experiences, children develop fluency, comprehension, and confidence.
Reading is more than a subject—it's a key part of our school culture. We encourage children to read widely and often, helping them to become thoughtful, independent readers with a lifelong love of books.
