TRINITY INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL (IGCSE -A LEVEL)

Reading

At Trinity International School, we promote reading as a daily habit from Pre-Primary through the Secondary section, not just as a skill but as a powerful gateway to imagination, empathy, and lifelong learning.

From Grade 1 onwards, students are introduced to literature through novel studies and poetry, fostering early exposure to diverse genres, authors, and themes. This intentional approach supports:

  • A deeper understanding of language nuances
  • Appreciation of an author’s voice and writing style
  • Exploration of poetic devices and literary elements
  • Critical thinking and textual analysis
  • Empathy through character exploration and cultural contexts
  • A genuine love for reading

Each classroom is equipped with a sustainable and dynamic library corner, stocked with curated, age-appropriate books across genres and languages. Our weekly library sessions are more than silent reading—they are vibrant learning spaces where students:

  • Engage in circle time discussions around books and themes

  • Reflect on readings through journal entries and creative responses

  • Write and share book reviews

  • Critique texts with guidance on literary devices, plot structure, and character development

  • Participate in read-alouds, buddy reading, and literature circles

  • Build personal reading goals and logs

  • Connect books to real-life experiences and values

Special reading events like Author of the Month, Drop Everything and Read (DEAR) time, Storytelling sessions, and Book Character Dress-Up Day further amplify the reading culture across the school.

We believe that readers become thinkers, and thinkers become leaders. At Trinity, we’re committed to nurturing a generation of students who not only read to learn—but learn to love reading.
