World Book Day Celebrations
It was brilliant to see all our schools across Consilium Academies celebrating the joy of reading last week as part of World Book Day.
Students and staff took part in a wide range of activities designed to promote reading for pleasure, including competitions, quizzes, book sharing events and dedicated time to enjoy reading together.
The week of celebrations highlighted the importance of reading in education and encouraged pupils to discover new books and develop a lifelong love of reading.
The day focused on storytelling and the power of books to bring people together. There was also a literary game of 'Traitors' where students had to hunt down the traitors supplying incorrect quotes from famous texts.
“A fabulous day, centered around a love of reading and the joy of storytelling,” said Antony West, Director of Literacy at Armthorpe Academy.
