World Book Day 2017

On Thursday the 2nd of March we celebrated World Book Day in our school.  We all did something 'booky' in our classrooms.  In the Senior Room we enjoyed spending time reading with our book buddies from the junior classes. It was a great opportunity to discuss books  and  encourage reading in the younger classes. 

In fifth and Sixth class we researched our favourite authors and completed the World Book Day top 5 lists on reading.  Sixth class also had the opportunity to write a story using Story craft a story writing tool on the web page www.worldbookday.com.  Story Craft gives great tips and advice from lots of different  authors. The children are encouraged to try Story Craft out at home and email any stories they complete to the school.
