On Friday March 17th we celebrated World Book Day across the school.  Everyone had great fun getting into wonderful costumes, and we took part in many book and reading themed events during the day.

In the afternoon the whole school gathered in the hall where we were thrilled to award some prizes to the ‘Top Library Borrower’ from each class.  These prizes were awarded to the child in each class who has borrowed the most books from our library so far this year.

Following these prizes our World Book Day Quiz began.   This saw all of the children competing in many different rounds, and having lots of fun along the way.   Congratulations go to all of the children who took part, especially those children from Years Three – Six who represented their teams.   This year the competition was incredibly close, with only four points separating all of the teams at the end of the final round.    This year’s winners were the Herons, with an impressive score of 27 points.

We must thank Mary Weblin, our wonderful School Librarian for all of her hard work in preparing this year’s quiz, along with everyone else who helped and took part.  Thanks must also go to everyone at home who created some amazing costumes!  We hope you all enjoy using your book day tokens towards something new and exciting to read!
