World Book Day - Year 5

Date: 5th Mar 2026 @ 1:50pm

Year 5 celebrated World Book Day in style with a fantastic day full of books, creativity and fun. The children came to school dressed as their favourite book characters, showing off a wonderful range of imaginative costumes inspired by stories they love.

They took part in an exciting assembly where everyone celebrated the joy of reading together. The pupils also tested their book knowledge by taking part in a fun and challenging book quiz.

One of the highlights of the day was a live session with Cressida Cowell, the author of the How to Train Your Dragon series. During the session, the children learned more about the book, discovered how the story and characters were created, and even had the opportunity to learn how to draw some of the characters.
