From the moment the children arrived, the school was buzzing with energy. Corridors were filled with princes, superheroes, animals and much loved storybook characters as everyone proudly dressed up as their favourite book character. The colourful costumes brought books to life and created a fantastic atmosphere across the school.
Throughout the day, children learnt about the best selling and award winning author and illustrator Tom Percival. They were captivated as they listened to some of his wonderful stories, exploring the powerful messages, memorable characters and imaginative worlds he creates. Teachers organised a range of exciting activities inspired by his books, including art projects, drama, writing tasks and group discussions.
The excitement continued right until the end of the day with a special whole school Celebration Assembly. Each year group proudly shared their focus book and showcased their fantastic learning.
World Book Day at Millbrook Infant School was a tremendous success- a day filled with imagination, inspiration and a shared celebration of the magic of books.
Interim Executive Head Teacher, Danielle Warren said, 'Thank you to our Reading Leaders, Mrs Dexter and Mrs Chumbley, for organising a wonderful way to celebrate World Bok Day, making memories that will last a lifetime!'
