The children of Marshalstown NS had a wonderful World Book Day. They dressed up as their favourite characters from their favourite books. In the morning, the junior classes did some shared reading with the senior classes. Everyone brought their favourite books with them to read to their new friends.
Lots of children brought in some books to school from home that they no longer wanted. These books were gathered together by the class teachers and every child who brought in a book got to swap it for another book. This was a great success!
World Book Day is a great way of promoting that reading can be fun and we are looking forward to next year’s Book Day already!
