World Book Day Celebrations

Today we celebrated all things bookish and dressed up as Wally and Wenda. 

In the school Library and throughout the school more stories were shared and children took part in Wally themed activities including a scavenger hunt. 

All children will also receive a World Book Day voucher which they can swap for a World Book Day book at participating retailers.

World Book Day

Today we celebrated World Book Day in school.

Thank you to everyone that bought in a book from home to share with a friend, a classmate or teacher. I hope you enjoyed sharing stories with one another.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The quizzes went well with children in KS1 and KS2 taking part (in separate quizzes), who knew what amazing knowledge of books the children have and competitiveness too!

Miss Whiteley shared her favourite stories from when she was little, Little Anna and the Tall Uncle and Tikki Tikki Tembo with classes that came to the Library. The children particularly enjoyed the second story probably because they like trying to say Tikki Tikki Tembo’s full name which was Tikki Tikki Tembo-no sa rembo-chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo. Now that is a long name!
