World Book Day 07.03.24

World Book Day is being celebrated at Whitehall on Thursday March the 4th.

   World Book Day 24

Thursday the 7th March

 

We would like all children to dress up as their favourite book character

and bring in £1 for the World Book Day charity.

 

We would also love you to be part of this exciting day.  Please show your child how much you value books by supporting as many of the activities as you can.  There are three events going on that you are invited to:

  • Homemade Book Character Costume Competition

If your child’s costume has been made or put together at home, then they will be entered into the Costume Character Parade.

It is only the children who have created their costume (not bought from a shop) who will be entered into the competition and have the chance to win a £10 or £20 book token.

  • Bookshare

Come and work with your child on some book activities, in their class, and have some fun learning with them.

  • Book Sale

Amazing, new and old books at ridiculously cheap prices for you to buy!  If you have any books to donate which are in good condition please bring to the school office by Tuesday 5th March and give to Mrs Ware.
