P7 World Book Day fun

5th Mar 2026

We had a lovely day celebrating “Reading for Fun” 
We began with some extra time to work on our potato characters (with a bit of plundering in the art cupboard!) 
Later we enjoyed a lovely paired reading session, sharing stories with our buddies in P1. 

We used iPads to create digital art book covers on Adobe and finished the afternoon with a quiz.

The readathon saw everyone really improve their engagement with reading, sharing titles and favourites and some children reading over a thousand words between school and home this week! 

Well done everyone!!
