On Thursday 18th April we celebrated Dyslexia Day in our school. Seven Dyslexic children prepared and shared a presentation with the two assemblies. They spoke about the challenges and benefits of having Dyslexia. The shared knowledge of things that they would like their friends and teachers to know about Dyslexia. They talked about successful Dyslexic people who have shaped the world and explained that Dyslexic Thinking will shape the future. We are all very proud of our brave volunteers who gave up many lunchtimes to prepare and who stood up in front of the whole school to talk about their learning difference.
Here is their presentation. Dyslexia PowerPt.pptx
