World Book Day- is it worth it?

Thanks to all the staff who dressed up for World Book Day and to all those who helped decorate doors. Absolutely brilliant. And so great to hear so many pupils talking about the books as they passed us by. Some parents might,  like one of our MSPs query what dressing up has to do with literacy. My argument is that it is only one way in a range of strategies we have for getting pupils talking about books. And my copy of Coraline flew off the shelf within 30 mins of my display going on view on Monday.


Our staff pupil quiz is next on the agenda and finally we have the big S1 quiz tomorrow. WBD vouchers will be given out then.
