World Book Day – Thursday 1st March

We have lots of activities planned by P6/7 for World Book Day this year!  Some of these include:

  • Book Charades
  • Making Bookmarks
  • Book Quiz
  • Book Hunt
  • Guess the Character
  • Book themed fancy dress or bring a prop

We are also taking part in a charity book swap to support Children 1st.  You should bring a book you are happy to swap with someone else.  There is also the option to bring in a small donation to support Children 1st’s work.  Anyone who takes part will receive a bookmark from Children 1st.

Pupil Council Update from Michael and Abigail

We’re hoping to start some new clubs and have been asking everyone what sort of clubs they would like.  In the new year we want to organise more master classes, because people really enjoyed them before.

Wet play times are another item on our action plan at the moment.  We have been doing a review of what we do at the moment and collecting everyone’s ideas for improving things.  We’ve been thinking about starting a “pay to play” scheme and other money raising ideas, to help us raise some money to buy new games for wet play times that can be shared by all of the classes.

Our most important job at the moment is planning the Christmas party.  We are putting together a great plan for the dances and games everyone’s going to be playing.  santa hat
