WBD Author Event

Year 5 were excited to have author Annabelle Sami visit them on World Book Day.

Annabelle spoke to the children about herself, being a writer and delivered a writing workshop in each class based on her new series of books Dream Weavers.

The children thoroughly enjoyed her visit and many after the workshops were able to ask Annabelle some more questions as she signed their books.

World Book Day

We have a theme this year which is 101 Dalmatians. Miss Whiteley has been sharing the story with many classes over the past few weeks.

Children are invited to dress up as one of the Dalmatian puppies – wear a white t-shirt with black spots. You can easily make your own using an white t-shirt and either decorate using a black felt tip pen or on paper colour in black spots, cut out and sellotape onto your t-shirt.

If you are not dressing up then please wear your school uniform as usual.

Whether you are dressing up or not everyone will be able to take part in lots of different activities and time to enjoy reading and sharing books and will be given a £1 World Book Day voucher which can be redeemed at participating retailers.
