World Book Day Showcase
As part of our World Book Day events, KS2 pupils read and then completed a piece of extended writing based on the picture book: The Barnabus Project by the Fan Brothers.
To celebrate the completion of the work, three of our KS2 pupils (Amelia Y3, Poppy Y4, Evie Y5) attended a World Book Day Showcase writing event with the other twelve Beacon Alliance schools, at St Joseph and St Bede’s in Bury. They shared their enjoyment of the book and extracts from their writing, with children and staff from the other schools.
I was so proud of them. They spoke clearly, with confidence and obvious enjoyment and pride about their work. Well done girls!
