Reading
Here at Our Lady and St Philomena's Catholic Primary School, we employ the 'Big Cat' reading scheme, with pupils then progressing onto 'real' books of their own choice, that they can choose either from their class library, or our schools vast, recently constructed library, which has been hugely successful in improving our pupils reading ability and reading progress.
