We celebrated 'International Book Giving Day 2021'.

'International Book Giving Day' was planned to promote a love for reading.

 

We asked all children to bring in an unwanted, age-appropriate book from home that was in a good condition. The children popped a little note about the book onto a piece of paper and placed it inside the book cover. The book was then placed into a plastic wallet, along with a special bookmark, and was hidden in the school grounds. Each class then had an opportunity to search the school and find themselves a new book.
