World Book Day

2024 - we had a reading sponsorship and raised nearly £1000!!! Thank you to everyone for this! With the money, children have decided the books they would like in their class reading corners so the children have had complete ownership over the spending of the money. Please see the pictures of the children enjoying their books in the World Book Day Gallery!

 

2023 - As part of World Book Day celebrations this year, we had local Author and Illustrator - Bec Tonks - visit school. She completed workshops with children in all year groups on building characters and how these can be used in stories. Children also looked at how authors/illustrators turn ideas from their stories in to bookmarks. There has been some super work and all children enjoyed it! 

Children have held Book Blankets / Campfires within class and everyone was asked to put a book inside an envelope so we can't judge books by their covers. All children were able to engage in meaningful Book Talk - and they loved it!

We also made a Reading Escape Room and the usual dress up activities happened - but this year, in our pyjamas! Look at all the fun we had! 

World Book Day 

As always, there was a fantastic turn out of book-inspired character costumes for World Book Day. Which characters can you spot??
