P5S – World Book Day

 Today we celebrated World Book Day in school. PJs and onsies were worn alongside book character costumes. Thank you to everyone who paid a donation to do so. Another thank you to those of you who took part in the readathon to raise money for new literacy resources for our school. You individuals raised a whopping £140.00 sponsor money. Added to the £19.50 donations we received, our class raised £161.50 towards the amazing total overall ……. over £2000.00.

In class we had lots of activities going on that were all linked to reading. We read some more of our class novel, One Dog and his Boy. We had a Read and Munch with P2/1 which was so successful we are planning more. We had lots of ERIC time. Our Bounce Back session today had you all comfy on the floor where I think some of you struggled to stay awake! We also played Conscious Alley for the first time which was linked to our class novel. Our day ended with a whole school assembly dedicated to reading. One of our class was even the lucky winner of the best costume for P4-5 and received a token to spend on ……. books!

The enthusiasm for reading has increased greatly over the last few months and I really hope it continues. Books are wonderful and we can learn so much from them.

Here are some photographs from our very busy day. Enjoy!

Please remember that we will be having a “Read and Munch” with P2/1 tomorrow (Thursday) as part of our World Book Day. You should bring your favourite book or your personal reader along with a piece of fruit (fruit is optional).

You may also dress up as your favourite book character or wear your Pjs/onsie. If you are not dressing up, school uniform should be worn. A £1 donation is suggested for doing so. Any readathon sponsor money should also be brought in tomorrow.

See you in the morning!
