Here's what our Cool Readers Club is all about...

These are our reading stars put forward by their English teacher.  We interview them about their current book, what they like reading about and what they like to do when they’re not reading.  Introducing William...

Year 8 William admits he has enjoyed reading ‘Cold Bath Street’ by AJ Hartley which is set on the streets of Preston. 

“It’s good being able to visualise the area and know the places being described,” said William who has moved onto the sequel ‘Winter Stone Lane.’ 

They are ghostly, gothic thrillers and William said: “Cold Bath Street was discussed in one of my classes and so I thought I should read it and it was a really good decision. It’s really interesting and is well-written.” 

William's favourite subjects are Maths and Technology but he has found a talent for music. 

“I got a keyboard for Christmas so I have been practising and teaching myself new songs. I am currently learning ‘Fur Elise’ which I am playing at the end of term ssembly. It’s tricky in the middle but I am getting there!”
