Year 2 World Book Day

The children in Year 2 have had a very exciting World Book Day. The day began with the reveal of all the children's wonderful outfits that celebrated their favourite characters from their favourite books. 

Well done to our costume winners:

Cedar

Ruben - for a tremendous Cat in the Hat outfit! 

Florence - for a fantastic effort being Harry and his bucket of Dinousaurs. Florence brought the book to show the children and her outfit was exactly the same as Harry's, she even had the correct coloured bucket! 

I really like how Ruben is dressed exactly like the Cat in the Hat. Joe

Cherry 

Vinnie O'Leary: for his amazing home made James and the Giant Peach creation. 

Bayleigh Parsons : for her uncanny portrayal of Dobby! 

I'm sure you'll agree all of the costumes were great today! 

Next the children had to find Wally. Mrs Nicholls and Miss Sparkes had been very busy hiding Wally and his friends all around the school. The children searched high and low for each character, eventually they managed to find them all. The last character to be found was Odlaw who was half way up a tree!

To end the day the children in Year Two were lucky enough to have a special visit from the author Dennis Bond. Dennis taught the children all about the ins and outs of writing a book, he showed them his drafts and his final pieces. The children loved finding out about all the publication steps and how his books were illustrated. Finally, they loved hearing his wonderful stories. 

You need a big imagination to write a book like Dennis'. Bonnie
