Vocabulary Walls and Reading Stations
Literacy-Rich Classrooms at GFD
At GFD, every classroom is a space where reading is celebrated and language is brought to life. Across all year groups, our classrooms feature dedicated reading stations and vocabulary walls, creating environments that foster curiosity, confidence and a love of literacy.
Reading Stations
Each classroom includes a cosy and engaging reading area, stocked with age-appropriate and high-interest books that reflect a range of genres, themes and interests. These stations encourage independent reading, book talk and shared storytelling—making reading a daily habit and a joyful part of school life.
Vocabulary Walls
Our dynamic vocabulary walls grow throughout each term, showcasing key words, topic-specific terms and student contributions. These visual tools support language development, spark discussion and help build confident, articulate communicators across all subjects.
By embedding literacy into the heart of every classroom, we empower our students to explore the world through words and develop the skills they need to become lifelong readers and learners.
