World Book Day
We marked World Book Day on Thursday 3rd of March.
This year with Covid restrictions lifted, it was nice to see our senior class pupils being given the opportunity to read a book for a junior class pupil again. Our classes were paired up as follows, 3rd Class pupils with Junior Infants, 4th Class with Senior Infants, 5th Class with 1st Class, and 6th Class with 2nd Class. This is always a lovely activity and everyone was delighted to see it return.
The pupils were invited to dress as a book character of their choosing on the day too.
The gallery below displays a snapshot of the colour and creativity on display.
