World Book Day

On Thursday the 21st of February we will be celebrating World Book Day at Penygawsi. Having met with the Curriculum Committee they have decided that they would like to dress up this year. They liked the idea of a ‘Myths and Legends’ theme linked to our topic ‘Bro Garwyr Tra Mad’ (Love Where You Live) where the children could dress up as a knight, princess or even a dragon. However, if your child does not have a costume linked to this theme, then why not dress up as a character from your favourite story book instead. It would be great if you could bring the book to school with you to share with a friend or your class. Please remember to put your child’s name on the book. 

The day will be filled with exciting reading activities and an opportunity to ‘Share a Story’ with a buddy. We will also watch some inspiring Author and Illustrator Masterclasses.

At the end of the day, your child will be presented with a Book Token that they can use to claim one of ten books free or, if they’d rather, they can get £1 off any book or audio costing over £2.99.  For further details please visit Worldbookday.com

We look forward to seeing you all dressed up on the 21st of February for a fun day of activities.
