WORLD BOOK DAY- 3RD MARCH

World Book Day

WE ARE SO EXCITED TO BE CELEBRATING WORLD BOOK DAY ON THURSDAY 3RD MARCH!

To make our World Book Day Celebrations as accessible as possible, we are offering pupils a choice for how you can celebrate!

On Thursday 3rd March, pupils can choose either:

  • To come to school dressed in a costume of their favourite book character!
  • To come to school dressed in their pyjamas for a bedtime story!
  • To come to school in uniform and bring a copy of their favourite book!

All classes will take part in World Book Day activities in class with their teachers!  We are looking forward to celebrating with all the children!
