World Book Day

Thursday 06 March 2025

Today is World Book Day! World Book Day is a celebration to promote the enjoyment of books and reading. Today has been filled with lots of opportunities to read and talk about books.

We started the day with a whole school World Book day assembly. We thought about what books we like to read and where we like to read. Help at home by talking about the best environment to read in. Where is a good place to read? Is it better to read on your own or with someone? What time is a good time to read? 

We had a busy morning. It was jam-packed with loads of reading and enjoying books. Miss Newman visited Year 2 and read some of her favourite picture books. Next, we did some paired reading with Year 5. The children were absolutely fantastic. The Year 2 and Year 5 children thoroughly enjoyed sharing their books from home and reading to each other.

Finally, we took part in a live lesson on BBC and their BIG LIVE READ. We heard loads of great recommendations from other children and schools.

   

What a fantastic day! Keep enjoying lots of books at home daily.
