How about buying a book as a gift?

A book makes a fantastic present at Christmas time. The gift of a healthy reading routine is also invaluable. Here at Bushey Meads we continue to foster a love of reading across the school from year 7 students, teachers and right up to support staff. Strong reading skills will carry students through all their studies in school, and reach far beyond that.

Every year the English and Media Centre publish a great holiday reading suggestion list. We are sharing some of the edited highlights of that, along with a few more added for good measure-all organised in age groups. The KS5/adult readers are also good treat options for us parents!

You can also get recommendations and guidance about suitable books for specific ages here: https://www.booktrust.org.uk/books-and-reading/bookfinder/
