Primary 1 – 3 pupils from Strone Primary School had a very exciting day out in Glasgow on Wednesday 5th March, attending the Scottish Children’s Book Awards at the Mitchell Library. All the pupils at Strone have been reading the shortlisted titles and voted online for their favourites. At the awards, pupils were able to get their own books signed by the authors and watched the ceremony as the winners were announced.
More literacy themed activities were enjoyed on Thursday 6th March when pupils took part in World Book Day and dressed up as their favourite book characters.
Our class (P2 St Joseph’s in Helensburgh) also attended the Book Awards at the Mitchell Theatre and had a great day. It was very exciting to see the authors in person. Our class especially enjoyed Jumblebum and the Jumblebum Rap!
