World Book Day

05 March 2026
World Book Day

World Book Day was a wonderful celebration of reading and imagination.

Primary pupils and staff arrived dressed as their favourite book characters, and throughout the day they enjoyed engaging activities including a reading challenge, narrations of favourite bedtime stories, and themed quizzes.

Across the week, they also enjoyed some inspiring author visits:

  • Junior pupils enjoyed a visit from author Tim Collins, best known for the Sherlock Bones series. Tim shared his lifelong love of books and his fascination with Sherlock Holmes, inspiring the creation of his canine detective. Pupils were challenged to put their own sleuthing skills to the test with puzzles from the books, making for an interactive and exciting session.
  • Infant pupils met Emilie Lauren Jones, author of A Poetic A–Z of Awesome Animals. Emilie’s lively and imaginative sessions encouraged pupils to explore language, word-play, and the joy of poetry in new and inventive ways.
