Book Week – Week 7, August 23^rd – 27^th

^{All the Shortlisted Books have arrived in our Library and are being processed ready for the children to use next week. This term the children will be making a 3 minute movie in Library lesson on a shortlisted book. Infants will be using iMovie and primary Video Editor.}

^{Our annual Book Fair, at this stage, will be held on Wednesday 25th August.}

^{More information will be sent home closer to Book Week as to how the day will look with COVID restrictions}

^{Theme – Old Worlds, New Worlds, Other Worlds.}

The children can dress up on Wednesday 25^th August according to the Old Worlds, New Worlds, Other Worlds theme or a book character of their choice.

Here are some ideas:

Old Worlds costumes can be anything from prehistoric dinosaurs and cavemen or cavewomen, to Roman gladiators, Pioneers, Explorers, Vikings, Egyptians and even costumes representing the Biblical era of Jesus and his disciples.

New Worlds characters could be Aliens or Astronauts!

Other Worlds characters could be a  Mermaid costumes , magical wizards, fancy-free unicorns, forest dwelling fairies, fire-breathing dragons and even monsters that we think live under our beds!

I know the children love dressing up each year and we can’t wait to see their costumes.

Please keep an eye out for any changes in regard to Book Week due to COVID.
