Reception/KS1 children can return to school, with their parents, at 6pm, with teddies and in their PJs, for a milky drink and bedtime stories. Parents are welcome to stay in the hall, with refreshments, whilst the children go into their own class until finish at 6.30pm (letter to follow). - **A daily book swap stall** - children can bring in their own (good quality) books and permanently exchange them at a stall run by Year 6 children on Thursday 1st March and Friday 2nd March. **Please send in any books by Wednesday 28th February** - **An Author visit –** Although we could not arrange for Dan Worsley to come into school on Thursday, he will be coming into school on Tuesday 20th March to talk to the children (Years 3 - 6). There will be an opportunity for **KS2** children to ask questions and purchase a signed copy of his book (letter to follow). - **Scholastics Book Fair –** Wednesday 28th February – Friday 2nd March (at the end of the school day). - **Character Day -** on Friday 2nd March, children can dress as a character from their favourite story book (KS2 children should be ready to answer questions about that character in front of selected judges). - **Prizes –** Prizes will be awarded to the most imaginative character in Reception/KS1 and book vouchers will be awarded to KS2. - **Classroom activities** – The teachers will be planning activities based around World Book Day so check out the website for competed work and photographs.
