World Book Day Blog Report

Thursday was World Book Day – a day all about reading and we had loads of exciting activities on!
Over the last week, our head librarians Ellie and Ben planned some great fun for all of us to enjoy.
They organised a ‘Draw a Book Character’ competition – The entries for this were amazing!
We also had an Accelerated Reading raffle for whoever managed to take a test and passed that day!
We all looked at the books we can buy with our free book tokens there are so many good options!
As well as free book tokens we all got to pick a pre-loved book to take home as a gift from the school.
Later, on in the younger one’s classroom, we went on a Live Video Event with David Walliams. It was so good! He read an extract from some of his books and from his new book coming out soon. Whilst listening, we all cuddled up with some yummy hot chocolate – we even had some cream and marshmallows.
All in all, the day was great fun!
The competition winners were:
P1-4 Book Character winner – Murray Reid
P5-7 Book Character winner – Hamish McGregor
Accelerated Reading Raffle winner – Rose Santangeli
