World Book Day
World Book Day is a celebration of authors, illustrators, books and (most importantly) it’s a celebration of reading. The children of Broadclyst Primary School celebrated World Book Day 2012 by dressing up as characters from their favourite books. During the day the children had the fantastic author, Simon James, visiting the school to hold workshops for each class. The day was thoroughly enjoyed by all, and the importance of reading was reflected throughout.
