World Book Day

World Book Day took place on 6th March this year. First Class brought in their favourite books and shared why they enjoyed them during circle time.

They completed a quiz about familiar stories and partook in paired reading with 4th Class. The teachers also put together a masked reader activity to the story “The Day the Crayons Came Home” which was enjoyed by all.

The weather was beautiful so we took the opportunity to have some D.E.A.R. (Drop Everything and Read) time on the hill.
