Book Week Scotland 2021 is from the 15^th until 21^st November this year.

To celebrate this we have arranged some fun activities in school.

• On Tuesday 16^th November our P7 buddies will go to P1 in the afternoon to support our P1’s to launch their new Book Bug Bags by reading their free books and enjoying the games.

 

• On Tuesday 16^th November all P1-7 pupils are invited to wear their PJs and bring their favourite bedtime story to school.

 

• Google Meet – some classes will be asking for parent volunteers to join the class on Google Meet to read a story.

 

• Masked Reader – as we did over lockdown, we will have a recorded mystery masked reader reading a story for the children to guess who it might be.

 

• Our weekly assemblies will be based around the Book Week theme of celebrating books and reading.

 

• We are hoping to have a visit from a local author which will be streamed over Teams to classes. This is still to confirmed.

 

• Read Like Pudsey – to support Children in Need, which is also running the same week, we are asking that as many children from P1-7 send in a picture of themselves reading with Pudsey (a picture or a bear), wearing Pudsey ears, dressed like Pudsey, wearing yellow, anything Children in Need themed. The picture can be uploaded to their class blog or emailed to the class teacher.

Winners from each stage will receive a £10 book token.
