Two Accelerated Reader (AR) Safe Winners on the same day!!
Well done to these boys who enjoyed Morning Tea with the Principal for doing so well with their Accelerated Reader (AR) from the start of the school year to mid-term 1. They have either exceeded their AR target or are making excellent progress with their reading.
AR Coordinator, Mrs McShane visited the classes this week and the boys who are doing well with AR got the opportunity to guess a three-digit code to open the AR safe and collect the £20 reward inside.
A special congratulations to the two lucky pupils who both guessed the correct three-digit code on the same day. It definitely pays to read in Holy Cross Boys’.
