Rest in Peace Charlie Hurley
"Charlie Hurley was one of my all-time heroes" - Sir Bob Murray
It’s easy for kids to forget the power of books when you have things like social media on mobile phones, but you can get a lot more from reading a book than reading on a phone.
Sunderland AFC forward, Duncan WatmoreDuncan added "Tom and I have enjoyed talking to the children and going through what their favourite books are, because of the type of person I always have a book I’m on with reading. Its important to support campaigns like this to keep children interested in reading and I believe its creates a world of excitement and one where they can show and explore their creativity." National Storytelling Week took place between 26th January and 2nd February, with the aim of promoting storytelling to people of all ages. Foundation of Light delivers award-winning education programmes for schools across the region and are mapped to the National Curriculum, bringing subjects to life for pupils helping to improve attitudes and skills whilst increasing enthusiasm and motivation within the classroom. Premier League Primary Stars uses the appeal of the Premier League and professional football clubs to inspire children to learn, be active and develop important life skills.
