World Book Day 2021
Next week (Monday 1st - Friday 5th March) we will be celebrating World Book Week!
We have created a Pick and Mix activity sheet for families to join in with throughout the week.
From baking to crafts, we hope there is something for everyone to enjoy.
Head Teacher's World Book Day Assembly 1st March 2021
STAY TUNED FOR MORE EXCITING UPDATES!
This year’s theme is Share a Story.
Below you will find lots of links to videos of staff sharing their favourite stories for you to enjoy. Why not record yourself reading your favourite story! Encourage the whole family to get involved and please send us your videos!
Share a Story
We all love reading! We recorded so many videos that we had to put them at the bottom of the page for technical reasons. Simply scroll down to find out what we have shared with you.

Masked Reader
Some members of staff hid behind a mask to read a story... Some even used a voice modulator! Can you guess who they are? Follow this link or click on the picture below to watch the videos. The mystery will be solved on Friday 5th March!

Please also see the fantastic selection of FREE audio books to listen to on the World Book day website as well as some lovely video stories for KS1.
In addition, you can celebrate World Book Day with a week of free events Monday 1st – Friday 5th March with Scholastics.
World Book Day will feel a little different this year but they have planned a whole fun-filled week of brilliant FREE events to help support teachers, parents and children who want to celebrate reading and books, wherever they are.
Children and parents can enjoy an array of wonderful authors and illustrators hosting 30-minute events, including draw-a-longs, writing workshops and a 4pm Book Club as an after school treat.
