World Book Day

We had great fun on World Book Day! The boys enjoyed dressing up in their pyjamas or as their favourite book character and were excited to take part in different activities throughout the day.

Year 2 were Roving Reporters and visited different year groups. They then reported back to the class about how the rest of the school were celebrating World Book Day. Later in the day, they wrote up their reports for a class newspaper. We also enjoyed ‘bedtime stories’ and a visit from a parent who is an author!

A fun and busy day!
