This week saw us celebrate all things books as part of Book Week Scotland. The week was kicked off last Friday with our visit from author Renita Boyle. We then had P1-3 parents into school on Tuesday as part of the gifting of our Bookbug\/Read, Write, Count bags.<\/p>\n

Our Pupil Council then planned a book swap, after which everyone curled up in class with a hot chocolate and marshmallows to enjoy their new books.<\/p>\n

We held a competition to design a book cover for our favourite books.\u00a0 The standard of artwork was very high.\u00a0 Portpatrick Community council kindly donated book tokens for prizes to keep our avid readers devouring those books.\u00a0 Our winners are as follows:<\/p>\n

To round off the week, pupils were able to come into school dressed as their favourite book character on Children in Need day, in return for a small donation to the charity.<\/p>\n
