Embracing World Book Day In Song, Dress & With Lots of Spectacular Reading Activities

On Thursday it was World Book Day and our enterprising and creative pupils and staff dressed up as their favourite book characters, or in pyjamas to celebrate reading at bedtime. The whole day was spent celebrating the joy of reading with a plethora of exciting activities, and there was even time for a little celebratory world book day song...

Verse:

Well, there's Biblo,

Captian Hook & Harry P,

There's Matilda, Mr Toad 

And Tracey B,

Peter Rabbit, Winnie The Pooh,

The Hungry Caterpillar too,

And the Tiger who is

Coming round for tea!

Yes, each one has a story

They'd love to share with you,

And if that tickles your fancy

Then you know what to do....

Chrorus:

Pick up a book, take a look.

At the cover and the blurb.

If you like it, dive inside it,

Lose yourself in ever word!

Well, turn the telly off

And find a cosy little nook.

Where you can sit for a bit,

And read a book!

Thank you to everyone for making an ordinary school day enchanting and magical!

Finally, continuing with our reading momentum we have decided to sign up for the Spark!
