On Thursday we celebrated World Book Day at Moorlands, and we all had an absolutely wonderful time. Most of the children and staff came to school dressed as one of their favourite book characters. We held an assembly in the morning, where several of the teachers and some of the School Reading Council shared books that were special to them. We also announced the winner of the family book quiz, which was Eden and his family.
All of the classes had lots of fun decorating their classroom doors as a favourite book cover. The winners were Badgers Class, who brilliantly recreated the cover of The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien. A lot of the staff also worked extremely hard on their doors, so well done everybody!
At lunchtime we had a successful Book Swap, where over 200 books were exchanged. Members of the Book Council helped set up the tables and we had children swapping books that they had brought in from home. Thank you parents for all your support with this!
During the afternoon, the prizes were given out for the best costumes (there was one winner from each class) and then everyone was given their £1 book token to take home. We're already looking forward to next year's event!
Looks like you all had a wonderful day!
