Celebrate World Book Day - Friday 6th March

Welcome to World Book Day at St James! We hope you enjoy dressing as your favourite book character and seeing how many you can identify from the outfits of your friends and teachers.  Illustrator and Author Clara Vulliamy will be taking a whole school assembly.

We hope you have a wonderful time celebrating the joy of reading in whatever form it might take, from fantastic stories to exciting factual accounts, finding out information from the past and discovering new ideas for the future, providing laughter and helping to understand the experiences of others, from being engrossed in a story alone or sharing it with family and friends.

Don't forget to download your WBD £1 voucher to spend at your local bookshop which is attached below, together with some ideas and resources to help you explore, create and understand the power of storytelling.

Also attached are some PDFs with links to story-telling activities, some read-aloud tales and a book quiz, book bingo and wordsearch. Thank you for these fantastic resources which have been created by Miss S; she can be found on Instagram at @thisgeordieteaches , Parrot Street Book Club and Pobble365
