There was fun for everyone, when staff and pupils at Clenchwarton Primary donned costumes for World Book Day on Thursday 5 March.

Children from all year groups arrived at the school gates dressed as their favourite fictional characters, while members of staff joined them in dressing up for the occasion.

There were also themed activities taking place across the day, which included book-led English lessons, as well as a ‘Masked Reader’ challenge, where children had to work out the identities of disguised teachers as they read their favourite stories.

“World Book Day is one of the days children look forward to the most, so we always enjoy taking part,” said Billy Overton, Assistant Headteacher at our school, which is a member of the West Norfolk Academies Trust.

“We have a good culture of reading at Clenchwarton, and want to continue to promote our love of reading.”
