World Book Day

As part of our drive to maintain, promote and engage pupil interest in reading, the school is taking part in WORLD BOOK day on Thursday 1st March. Children are asked to come into school dressed as their favourite book character. A £1 donation is required on the day and the money we raise will be used to buy new books for the school.

To help get them started on their reading journey, every child will receive a £1 World Book Day Book Token that can either be exchanged for one of TEN special £1 World Book Day books or used to get £1 off any book/audio book costing £2.99 or more. You can find out more about the books at worldbookday.com/books. Your child’s token can be redeemed at most UK bookshops. Please help your child to use it on or after World Book Day by visiting your local bookshop (if you need help finding one, visit booksellers.org.uk/bookshopsearch).

You can join us in building your child’s enthusiasm for books well beyond World Book Day by reading together regularly and joining your local library if you are not yet members. For more information about World Book Day, ideas for World Book Day costumes and ideas on sharing books at home, visit worldbookday.com.

Children are never too young to start their journey with books, and the benefits of reading are enormous—so we hope, like us, you will use World Book Day to celebrate it with your child.
