Children at St Peter's 2-8 enjoyed a very exciting week for National Book Week!
Monday’s assembly introduced the week and on Tuesday pupils tuned into David Walliams' Live Assembly.
Throughout the week the children watched members of staff and monitors reading stories, including the Head Master, Mr Walker. You can watch the school's national book week videos here.
There were also quizzes and prizes, including ‘Who is hiding behind the book?’
Children at St Peter's 2-8 took on an 'extreme reading' challenge and took pictures of themselves reading in some unusual locations. Prizes went to Tilly in her canoe, Sasha who read at great heights, Annaliese for reading in a tree & Alice who read quietly in her bedroom... on top of her wardrobe!
On Thursday for World Book Day the children dressed up as their favourite character from a book. This year the theme was ‘Reuse, Recycle and Create’. Pupils were encouraged to be imaginative and create a costume with items they found at home. Prizes were awarded for the most creative costumes in Thursday's assembly with an exciting Zoom fashion show. The winners for the most imaginative costumes went to Albert, Aurora, Joseph and Miles!
The children also took part in the 'St Peter’s 2-18 Whole School Read’ on Thursday for World Book Day. From 11.20am until 11.40am, the whole school left their screens in order to read for 20 minutes.
