Pyjama Themed Readathon

Believe it or not but the school hall was a scene of tranquility as classes arrived for their Readathon to celebrate World Book Day.  Everyone arrived suitably dressed in the finest pyjamas and onesies, blanket in hand and cushion to settle themselves down for a good old read.  The pyjama theme continued into the afternoon when the children enjoyed a movie of their choice that was inspired by a well know children’s book.  Everyone is looking forward to dress up day tomorrow when everyone is encouraged to dress up as a character from fiction.  Our afternoon assembly is for Pr.1 – 3 children and parents are invited to join us at 2.00pm.
