• World Book Day 2024

  Fri 08 Mar 2024

  For this year's World Book Day, the children were invited to dress up as adjectives (describing words) in what we hoped would be a celebration not just of stories but of language itself.  We were delighted and thoroughly impressed by the children's costume efforts. With adjectives such as, bedraggled, whimsical, compassionate and experimental, the children showed their creativity and ingenuity.  Well done, everyone.  

  

• Twilight Tales

  Thu 07 Mar 2024

  To celebrate this year's World Book Day, we hosted a special 'Twilight Tales' event, in which we invited the children to return to school in the pyjamas for hot chocolate and a bed time story.  The Year 6 children, who read these stories, brought them to life with props, dressing up clothes and puppets.  A wonderful evening was enjoyed by all.  A special shout out for our excellent Year 6 readers.
