World Book Day

We are celebrating World Book Day 2026 on Thursday 5th March. This year, the children will take part in four themed learning sessions across Sports, Geography, History, and Science. Each classroom will offer engaging, book‑inspired activities designed to help pupils discover the joy of reading, which is the central focus of World Book Day this year.

Throughout the day, pupils will:

• Create group‑written sports stories
• Explore stories and cultures from around the world
• Make historical artefacts
• Design imaginative, science‑based inventions

The activities will be completed in a collaborative way, with children working together in their House teams.

Please find more information on the world book day website: www.worldbookday.com Children are welcome to dress up if they would like to and we encourage you to reuse or exchange costumes.

I hope you have a wonderful week!
