Big Book Bashers


Have you ever taken part in a world book day festival? Well the children at St. Mary’s certainly have!


For world book day we did some book activities such as baking a cake related to a book, making puppets or designing a book cover. We also did a reading riot everyday, where the classes had to stop what they were doing and read for 15 minutes. Secretly, the Big Book Bashers (who organised the week) did a reading fl ash mob where they all stood up suddenly at lunch and read aloud their favourite books. Then the children took part in a quiz based on some popular books. There were two teams, ‘non-fi ction’ and ‘fi ction’. They were both amazing but in the end the boys’ team won. Mia said that ‘It was lovely to see everyone so involved with books.’


At the end of the week everyone
