You might want to check the settings on your iPhone:

  1. Go to Settings  > Siri & Search > Announce Notifications, then turn on Announce Notifications.
  2. Tap an app you want Siri to announce notifications from, then turn on Announce Notifications.
  3. For some apps, you can also choose whether to announce all notifications or only time-sensitive notifications.

All the best :-)
