Reading Buddy: An Enriching Experience for Our Students
Reading Buddy, which ran since September 2023 and ended in May 2024, successfully empowered senior students to guide their junior peers while helping them build stronger reading habits.
Pairing up F.1 students with F.4 and F.5 students, the program created 19 buddy pairs who met regularly in the school hall and the computer room to take part in series of collaborative activities, including completing reading tasks, creating an e-book, writing and recording dialogues. The best teams competed in a live performance, showcasing their remarkable work at the end.
With the fun and engaging activities, this enriching program has successfully enhanced our students' confidence in reading and using English. They were able to discover the joy of reading stories and are getting better at it. Reading Buddy proved to be a truly transformative experience for all who participated!
