This year we have celebrated World Book Day in a number of different ways.<\/p>\n

During a trip to Perth on Wednesday 6th of March we visited Waterstone’s book shop where we were able to browse the books on offer and use our book tokens to buy one each. We were very excited to bring them home with us!<\/p>\n

The P1-4 class spent World Book Day with Mrs Forrest. They shared some of their favourite stories including\u00a0some in Spanish and Dutch. They were then tasked with creating their own stories using only pictures.\u00a0This meant that the children had to get creative, thinking about how to tell a story without any words.\u00a0We now have a lovely selection of their books available in our library.<\/p>\n

Our P5-7 class spent their world book day creating a surprise for the other class. Each child picked their favourite picture book which they then turned into an audio book! The class had a discussion before recording to decide what they needed to make a good audio book. They decided they needed to speak clearly, pick a good, engaging book and to make sure that they sounded excited when they were reading.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our World Book Day celebrations were rounded off on Monday 11th of March with a visit from The Deputy First Minister Mr John Swinney who visited the school for a Q&A session. The children worked together to decide on some questions to ask Mr Swinney. They were keen to find out about his favourite books. Once he had answered our questions Mr Swinney finished his visit by reading two of his favourite picture books to us which he had brought from home.<\/p>\n
