World Book Day

On Thursday 3rd March it is National World Book Day. This is a day where we as a school love to celebrate all that is great about books and reading. As part of the celebration this year we will be having a dressing up day with the theme of ‘your favourite book character.’

 During the day, the children will be exploring their favourite books, and characters within them. They will get the opportunity to participate in a variety of fun activities linked to a specific text, including drama, role plays and creative writing. We are also inviting local author, Paul Deslandes, to our school for the day to share and inspire the children with his story ‘The Garden Monster’. 

Your child will be issued with a £1 gift token, which they can exchange at their local book shop for 1 of 10 exclusive, new and completely free World Book Day £1 books. Or if they’d prefer, the children can use your book token to get £1 off any full price book instead.
