We are all looking forward to a fun packed day on Thursday as we celebrate World Book Day at Abbotswell! We have lots of super activities planned including writing a whole school story, making character puppets and story telling. Here are a few reminders of information relating to the day:

• We would like every child to bring in a wooden spoon before Thursday so that we can use them to create character puppets on the day. Well done to those who have already brought one in!
• The children are invited to enter our Extreme Reading Challenge Competition if they wish, by bringing in a photograph of themselves reading a book in an unusual or adventurous place! There will be a prize for the winner!
• Raffle tickets will be on sale this week in school to win a signed copy of one of the Short listed Scottish Book Award Titles.
• We would like all the children to come to school on Thursday dressed up as one of their favourite book characters and if they have a copy of the book they could bring it along with them on the day. There will be a whole school fancy dress parade in the afternoon and prizes awarded for some of the best costumes!

We are sure all the children (and Staff!) will have lots of fun on the day!
