LifeJackets is running a reading challenge for 7-11-year-olds in England, led by teachers and youth leaders. Our theme is ‘Home‘ which provides a framework to explore topics such as homelessness and housing, belonging, refuge and migration in a hopeful and age-appropriate context.

Our Reading Challenge pack:

→ Includes free ready-planned activities

→ Supports children in developing their own ethical code

→ Is a cross-curriculum resource that can help meet RE and SMSC obligations or fit into PSHE or English lessons. It can also map onto the Headstart Academic Resilience framework.

Registration form

Thank you for wanting to take part in the reading challenge. We hope you and your pupils enjoy it. Please tell us a little bit about yourself so we can register you and send your pack of materials.
