'Read a Million Words Together' Campaign

Gwenda Thomas Welcomes ‘Read a Million Words Together’ Campaign

Gwenda Thomas AM today welcomed the major new campaign to encourage boys to read launched by the Deputy Minister for Skills, John Griffiths.

Gwenda Thomas stated ‘This is a much needed initiative targeting boys between the ages of 9 and 14 who are reluctant readers and need appropriate, exciting reading material, along with the support of teachers and family members, to provide motivation and remove the stigma of reading being ‘uncool’.’
