Books will be on sale on the day at a discount price of £7.20 each (rrp £7.99). If your child would like a copy they should bring the money in a named envelope on the day. Clare will also be signing the books.

As part of our World Book Day celebrations, author Clare Povey will be visiting years 5 and 6, talking to them about writing, being an author, her book ‘The Unexpected Tale of Bastien Bonlivre’ and they will be able to participate in some fun activities.

On Thursday 3rd February invited children from Years 5 & 6 attended a
Harry Potter Book Night.

Upon arrival at ‘Hogwarts’ the Sorting Hat’ decided which house each child would go into before they embarked upon a magical evening of owls, Marauder’s Map hunt, quiz and the mysterious Ooblek. The evening ended with the counting house points and the winning house announced….Gryffindor!!

A day of celebrating all things bookish will be taking place on 3rd March. The theme this year is characters from books and we are inviting children to come into school dressed as a character or to bring in a prop from a book. If your child is dressing up or bringing in a prop they should bring in the book as well. If they are not dressing up then they should wear school uniform as normal as it is not a non-school uniform day.

Throughout the day children will be able to share their favourite stories with each other and participate in lots of activities. £1 World Book Day vouchers will also be given out and these can be exchanged for World Book Day books at participating retailers.
