World Book Day

Today we celebrated World Book Day and helped to raise money for Sheffield Children's Hospital by wearing out pyjamas, bringing in our teddies and reading some bedtime stories.

We started the day with an assembly where we found out about world book day and learnt a fantastic song all about reading.

KS1 had a visit from a local author, Shelley Wilcockson who talked about her love of books, how she became and author and read some extracts from her latest books.

KS2 joined in with the BBC Live Lesson and completed lots of exciting activities about their favourite books.

At the end of the day, we held a book swap and we had so many excited children (and adults!) who came along to choose a new book and donate their used books. This proved a HUGE success and is something we will definitely do again in the near future.

Thank you to everyone who took part and helped to raise money for Sheffield Children's Hospital.
