What better way to enjoy World Book Day than with a comfy cushion and a favourite book?! All pupils brought their favourite cushion or pillow and a book of choice on Thursday, March 5th and enjoyed some relaxed reading time. Children were presented with stickers and book vouchers going home.
World Book Day also marked the start of 6 weeks of DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) time and shared reading with the infants. 5th &6th class groups take infants in their groups for paired reading every day at the beginning of lunchtime. Then after lunch at 1pm, everyone (including teachers!) enjoy 15minutes of silent reading…..it’s the simple pleasures!! 🙂
