World Book Day

There were a lot of strange characters in and around Tannochside Primary School today as we celebrated World Book Day.  Many of the children and staff were dressed up as book characters.  We had Funny Bones skeletons, Oompa Loompas and Charlie from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Horrid Henrys, Cruella Deville and some of her dalmations and many, many more characters.  We even spent some time trying to find Wally from Where’s Wally in each of the classes.

Every class chose a winner  who received a World Day Book.  An overall winner was chosen from each department and each of these children received a £5 book token to spend at the Book Fair next week.  The overall winners were:

Nursery a.m – Calvin

Nursery p.m – Dana

P1-3 – Brodie

P4/5 – Evan

P6/7 – Corey

We even had a staff competition but the Pupil Council couldn’t decide on an outright winner so Mrs Ferrie (Cruella Deville) and Mr Flannigan (Cat in the Hat) had to share the goodie box prize.

A huge thank you to everyone for making such an effort today.  Photos to follow later.

World Book Day

World Book Day will be celebrated on Thursday 6th March 2014.  Children and Staff are being encouraged to dress up as a book character.  There will be prizes for the best dressed from each class and stage, and for the best dressed staff member!  The children are being asked to bring £1 on the day too.

We are all looking forward to seeing everyone dressed up on the day and celebrating the joy of reading!

Red Nose Day and World Book Day 2013

Today we supported a combined Comic Relief/World Book Day at Tannochside.  Everyone was asked to dress as a character from a book, or to dress down in something red to raise money which will be donated to Comic Relief.   Everyone got into the spirit, with some excellent ideas for costumes.  The staff held their own competition, with Miss O’Neill winning an excellent Red Reading Hamper.  Each class had a fancy dress winner, each receiving a World Book day book.  We finished the day with a fun assembly to celebrate our successes and to think about why we help towards this important charity.  Thank you to each family who donated.

World Book Day

Thursday March 1st was World Book Day.  Every pupil received a £1 gift voucher which they can use towards a book in most high-street book shops.

To celebrate this day, everyone was invited to dress up as their favourite book character.  A winner for best costume was chosen from each stage – they received a book and bookmark as a prize.  The staff also held a competition – Mr. Clark won for his Mr. Bump costume!

Thank you to everyone who worked together to make this such a memorable day.  Special thanks to Mrs. Fleck who organised it!
