World Book Day

We are delighted to be supporting World Book Day again this year on Thursday March 5th.  This will be a day full of exciting literacy activities.  Children are invited to bring their favourite book to school to share with a child in another class.  It will be a non-uniform day for a suggested donation of £1.  Money raised will be used to supplement our non-fiction texts for our class libraries.  Non-uniform can include onesies and pyjamas.

The increase in reading engagement in our school continues to grow and we appreciate your continued support in this.  Please encourage your child to fill in their First Minister’s Reading Challenge Passport with any books/magazines they have read.  One of our pupils won the prize last year for the child reading the most books in Scotland!

Finally, we are delighted to welcome Lindsay Littleson to school on March 3rd for pupils in P4-7.  She will be telling the children about her journey to becoming an award winning children’s author and reading from one of her novels.  She will have a selection of her books with her for children to buy, priced £6 each.  There is absolutely no obligation to purchase.

Best wishes

Mrs Campbell
