Burnley pupils happy to turn over a new leaf during summer holiday reading challenge

A challenge to read a book a week over the summer holidays was the task ahead of Burnley schoolchildren.

The reading challenge, called "Read a book a week to earn a treat" was set for pupils at Burnley's Holy Trinity Primary and several youngsters were happy to take a break from technology and television.

The scheme was aimed at encouraging children to read and use their library and it certainly worked a treat.
