World Book Day
On World Book Day itself the Pre-Prep pupils and staff arrived at school in some fabulous costumes from dragons to dinosaurs and princesses to pirates. Nursery described their characters to each other and Reception brought in their favourite story and read it to the class. PP1 explored the story of the Three Bears and made delicious porridge. PP2 read four books which included Tabby McTat and wrote adverts for homeless animals. PP2 also wrote their own stories this week using George’s Marvellous Medicine as inspiration. They read their versions entitled George’s Marvellous Machine to the rest of Pre-Prep in assembly. Well done to PP2 for some amazing writing.
It was lovely to see so many novel and inspirational costumes throughout the whole of Main and Upper School too.
The whole of Pre-Prep also had a ‘draw a book cover’ competition in which the children had to design a new cover for their favourite book and write an explanation of why they particularly liked their chosen book. Congratulations to everyone for their fabulous drawings and explanations, but particularly to our winners: Saskia Simpson-Daniel (Reception), Emilia Sample (PP1) and Gus Living (PP2):
