Students marked World Book Day on Thursday the 6th of March, by taking part in literacy quizzes and themed English lessons, aimed at inspiring a lifelong love of reading.

Students and staff took part in a variety of events designed to highlight the joy of books and storytelling. The youngsters participated in a literary treasure hunt, solving clues about famous books and characters.

Staff dressed up in costumes, and students had to guess the novels and characters they portrayed.

During their free time, students had fun with numerous games and quizzes in the library.

In addition, selected students took part in a digital 7 Stories Workshop and the BBC Live Lesson, while others enjoyed free reading time or explored different ways to read.

In form time, classes competed in a literary quiz, and English lessons featured themed activities to celebrate the day.

The theme for this year’s World Book Day was “Read Your Way,” encouraging children to explore reading in their own way, making it a fun and personal experience.

To top it off, the school launched its new book club and podcast, giving students even more ways to dive into the world of literature.

World Book Day is a charity working to promote reading for pleasure and ensure every child has access to books. This year’s celebrations aimed to break down the perception that reading is a chore and instead highlighted how reading can be an enjoyable, social, and rewarding experience.
