Really enjoying the training session this afternoon. So many considerations for supporting refugee students in school - many I hadn't even thought of! Thank you
Hello! 👋

We're Refugee Education UK (REUK) and we equip young refugees to build hopeful futures through education. We have grown from a small volunteer-led project into a national charity supporting thousands of refugee children and young people to get into and thrive in education across the UK.

“A national reading culture cannot be rebuilt without accessible public libraries, well-supported teachers and investment in the people whose work brings books to life for children.”
Amen to this.

Looks like a fabulous initiative - it remains to be seen what the impact will be on children, schools, families and libraries but I'm hopeful!

If you liked The Final Year you will love this. Twice the size, twice the feels, all the beauty. I cried at least three times. An antidote to toxic masculinity and a must read for young boys.

I enjoyed this book too - a lovely gentle read that reminds us of the power of nature and friendship. A great summer read.
'What ifs weigh heavy, why nots lift the heart...' Jakub's Otter by @coralrumble.bsky.social is a gentle joy - I can't recommend it enough 👏 📚 ❤️
