On Wednesday 21st August students and staff celebrated book week, commencing with a parade and then fun activities, relating to the short listed books. This years theme was "Reading is my Superpower". Mrs Anderson organised a staff performance highlighting each of their superpowers, much to the children's delight.
Finn M dressed up as Harry Potter and he likes Harry as "he helps people". About the the parade, Finn said "it was fun and good".
Claudia K dressed up as a Princess and said, "The parade was very fun. I was a bit nervous on the stage. The activities were so good, I made paper glasses and did some chalk drawing outside".
