SHERSTON Church of England Primary School has launched a new initiative to encourage children to take up reading during their lunch breaks.

They are now on the search for donations of books, annuals and comics that are suitable for the primary school age group to make up boxes of reading materials.

Contributions do not need to be in a perfect condition and the school are also looking for donations of rugs so children can have a reading area on the field.

If you can help, contact the school on 01666 840237.
