We had a fabulous Book Week from Monday 11th October to Friday 15th October in St Catherine’s!
Book Character Day (as always was also a brilliant experience shared by all our little children in school. We saw many Nursery Rhyme, Fairytale and Novel Characters in school.
Heartfelt thanks to our parents for supporting Book Week in School. Our little children get so much out of it as it promotes an awareness of Literacy, Reading and Books and helps encourage good reading habits and an overall love of learning! Parents, as always, support this by preparing children so well for Book Character Day and also by allowing children to purchase a story/ novel / non fiction book from the Book Fair. This year our Book Fair totalled £ 2520.90 of which we are allowed a percentage commission of this to buy more books for our little children…so thank you so much!
Thanks also to all staff for facilitating Book Week and ensuring that the teaching and learning is centred around this very important theme. We had a focus on book/ nursery rhyme/ fairytale characters; their costumes, speeches about them, art work depicting them, dramatizing them, reading activities and much more!
Special thanks also to Mrs Connolly (Language and Literacy Leader) for organising all events in school providing an amazing literary experience for our little pupils.
