Swan Lane celebrated World Book Day in style on Thursday 2nd March, with staff and pupils attending school in fancy dress and participating in different reading challenges and and sharing books throughout the day.
Our theme this year was 'Words' and children and staff were asked to dress up as a Word - some of the outfits were ingenious! Children in each class then contributed to a class dictionary, so that all the words and their meanings were put into a delightful keepsake, which will be displayed in the school library.
Many children entered the 'Extreme Reading' competition, being spotted reading in a variety of weird and wonderful places, and everyone participated in shared reading with children from another Key Stage. In the afternoon, we took the learning outside and children took part in a reading trail to solve clues and crack the secret code.
It was a thoroughly enjoyable day, and a wonderful opportunity to share our love of books and reading together.
