# Reading ![](https://stannescrumpsall.co.uk/images/gallery/new-2025/IMG_5142.JPG) ## *“Once you learn to read, you will be forever free.”* — Frederick Douglass At St Anne’s, we aim to inspire every child to develop a love of reading through immersing them in high-quality, engaging texts. All year groups share a wide range of stories with their children, from traditional tales and nursery rhymes to intriguing picture books and gripping novels. We celebrate children’s achievements in reading with regular awards in class, assemblies and the community. At St Anne’s, all children have access to well-stocked, ever-changing libraries and reading areas and we regularly invite authors and poets into school, or visit them in the community, to work with and inspire our children. ### Reading the St Anne's Way Updated Sept 2025 Reading Progression Map.docx(1) 234 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/stannescrumpsall/files/documents/Reading_Progression_Map.docx(1).pdf) [Embedded content](https://files.schudio.com/pdf/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Ffiles.schudio.com%2Fstannescrumpsall%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2FReading_Progression_Map.docx%281%29.pdf#zoom=page-width) Reading The St Anne's Way 2025 (2) 6.95 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/stannescrumpsall/files/documents/Reading_The_St_Anne's_Way_2025%20(2).pdf) ### Reading GreatBooksGuide-2026-DIGITAL-Pages-single 12.47 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/stannescrumpsall/files/documents/GreatBooksGuide-2026-DIGITAL-Pages-single.pdf) Reading for Pleasure Policy (1) 222 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/stannescrumpsall/files/documents/Reading_for_Pleasure_Policy%20(1).pdf) Reading at Home 147 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/stannescrumpsall/files/documents/Reading_at_Home.pdf) Reading By Six 1.26 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/stannescrumpsall/files/documents/Reading_by_6.pdf) ![](https://stannescrumpsall.co.uk/images/library/y34_library.jpeg) ![](https://stannescrumpsall.co.uk/images/library/y56_library.jpeg) ***Useful websites/links for parents***: Read, Write, Inc.
