Shared Reading

Calderstones is the home of Shared Reading. At Shared Reading groups, a trained Reader Leader selects wonderful stories and poems to read aloud together.

Everyone is welcome to share how the words make them feel, as well as their thoughts, ideas and memories. There is no pressure to talk or read aloud.
