WINNERS

Antrim Primary decorated wooden spoons as Julia Donaldson characters.

Isobel Mair School had a guess the story from the cake competition. Can you guess this story?

Kings Hall School created mood boards to represent favourite stories. Every pupil from Years 3-7 took part & the resulting creations took over the school reception & dining room, sparking lots of book chat. Year 8 made some very special World Book Day cushions in their DT lessons based on their favourite books. How creative!

Crockerne Church of England Primary School asked pupils to ‘design a spine’ and created a wonderful booky wall.

Edward Bryant School created massive enlargement art of one of their favourite books, A Boy and a Bear in a Boat by Dave Shelton.

RUNNERS-UP
We also wanted to share two other fantastic ideas from CWP Glaslyn School who created mini sagas in just 30 words and St John Bosco College Battersea who enjoyed a game of ‘Literacy Cluedo’ with students gathering literary evidence around school to reveal the culprit, place and weapon of choice from literature.
