Celebrating World Book Day 6/3/24

On Wednesday 6th March we will be celebrating World Book Day at school.

Children are invited to come to school dressed as a character from a book or to come dressed in their pyjamas bringing their favourite bedtime story.

The Book Fair will be arriving at school that week. Children will visit the Book Fair with their class and will create a ‘Wish List’ that they will bring home. Parents/carers, then have the opportunity to make any purchases online, should they wish.

On World Book Day, we will be holding a ‘Big Book Swap’. If your child has any books they no longer read, which are in good condition, they can bring them to school on the Wednesday, to swap for a new book which they can take home.
