We celebrated World Book Day on Thursday 2nd March 2017!  We came to school dressed as a character from a book.  We met up with the whole school in the gym hall where Mrs Breen read us ‘Cinderboy’.  It was fantastic!  we also had the opportunity to pair up with someone in our House and share a book.  What a wonderful day!
