Fabulous Book Awards 2021 - 2022

This is what our children think of the Fabulous Book Awards...

"FBA has introduced us to new genres that we didn't know we liked and also confirmed genres that we don't like."

"It helped develop my imagination and reduced my screen time."

"It increased my pace of reading and the amount of reading I do." 

"We have enjoyed having dedicated time together to read and talk about the books. It has been great to be able to share opinions and recommendations."

"It has been great to be able to read at home without being interrupted or told to do something else."

"Book club has expanded our love for books."

Year 5 and 6 pupils join with Mrs Gaskell each Wednesday to review specially selected books for The FBA Book Awards. 

The Fantastic Book Awards (FBA) is an annual book event designed to encourage children to read for pleasure.

Our pupils select the story books they consider the best, review, recommend and share.

FBA is a chance for pupils to meet, discuss and share views about their reading in an informal way. "I love the group atmosphere - it's wonderful and always a great chat and a great afternoon". Sienna Y6
