World Book Day 2023

Posted 27th February 2023

Form groups will be taking part in a quiz to test their knowledge on a range of books from past to present.
Staff and students are invited to take part in a book swap! Students can bring in any books they no longer need and swap them for an alternative book to enjoy.
Periods 1-5, students will take part in a story chain. They will hear a section from a short story read aloud by some familiar voices and will be encouraged to predict what might happen next…
Around the school will be hidden some images that relate to different book characters. Students can collect answer sheets from the library and guess each character in order to win a prize!
Students can also look out for some inspirational reading quotes displayed around the school and some of their teachers' book recommendations!
They can also collect a QR code from the library to download a £1 book token, which can then be exchanged for a new book at participating local booksellers or supermarkets.
We also have a form reading challenge launching on World Book Day. Each form group will be provided with a display with 100 empty books ready to be coloured in. Each time a student reads a book at home, they will complete a review and colour in one of the books. Forms with the most books coloured will win prizes! It's time to get reading!
