World Book Day
World Book Day Workshop
The children across the school took part in World Book Day workshops. KS2 children used their drama skills in various mini games and then performed a whole class drama using the book ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’. Each child was given a character and was encouraged to use expression and varied voices when saying their lines. KS1 looked at different emotions and played mini games. All the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves! Well done to everyone who dressed up and came as a character from their favourite book.
About World Book Day 2025
We champion the fun of reading, because it seriously improves lives. Reading for fun is the single biggest indicator that a child will grow up to enjoy a happier and more successful life – more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational backgrounds or their income.
But here’s the challenge, it’s at an all-time low, with only 1 in 3 children now saying they enjoy reading. We believe children are more likely to read if they enjoy it, so we’re on a mission to encourage them to see reading as an entertaining, social and fun thing to do. We want more children to grow up with a life-long, life-changing habit of reading for fun, and all the benefits this brings.
We are a charity that operates in the UK and Ireland and we will next be celebrating World Book Day on 6 March 2025.
