World Book Day

Today was World Book Day. We all dressed up as story book characters and shared our favourite books.


























This is Mrs. Rees and Mrs Hargreaves as Allan Ahlberg's Burglar Bill and Burglar Betty!



As it was World Book Day,however, we thought about children in other countries who are just like us and have a right to education but because of war or difficult conditions do not have books to teach or entertain them.We thought that by selling our plants and raising money for comic relief we might be able to help other children in the world enjoy books too.

encouraged to go to school to the highest level they can.
