World Book Day

We inspire children to love all things books and reading every single day of the year. At Stanton, we see World Book Day as a birthday for books; a day to celebrate how wonderful books really are!

World Book Day is a big event at Stanton and the children love to get involved in the exciting activities we create. 

Over the past few years we have enjoyed:

• Booky Breakfast serving Potter Pancakes with Golden Ticket syrup, Paddington Orange Marmalade Scones and Alice in Wonderland 'Drink Me' fruit smoothies
• Staff performances- 'Who Snapped Red Crayon?' and a retelling of 'Supertato' 
• Book Doors Trail- every door was transformed into a book!
• Who's Coming for Dinner?- guessing the dinner guests from the clues on the table
• Potato Book Characters 
• Reading Rocks
• Dressing up as our favourite book characters
• Dressing up as a word
• The Masked Reader- Can you guess which member of staff is behind the mask sharing their book recommendation?
• Virtual Word Book Day Scavenger Hunt
• Ask an Author 
• Share a story- children across the school sharing a book together 
• Reading in unusual places
• And lots more!
