Pre-Prep’s We Love Books Week

What an incredible and exciting week it has been in Pre-Prep. The children didn’t just celebrate World Book Day, they spent the whole week immersed in books to help them to love reading and to inspire them to be authors and illustrators. The week has been jam packed with fun activities. Each morning and some afternoons mums came in and read their favourite stories. Thanks to Mrs Mahan, Mrs Blair, Mrs Sturdy, Mrs Wilkinson, Mrs Collier and Mrs Aston who all entertained all the children What great storytellers!

Former pupil Jake Grafton Telfer also came in to read the story The Book With No Pictures and had the children from Nursery to PP2 and the teachers in stitches. (Click here to watch the video.) 
Just before World Book Day, PP1 had great fun recreating and acting out the story of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’. In small groups the children took on the role of a character and one person became the narrator. It was wonderful to watch each play and see how the children told it in a slightly different way. We even filmed the plays and all the children became film stars for 5 minutes. Well done everybody.
