St Joseph’s
World Book Day
Thursday 5th March 2020
And
Book Fair
St Joseph’s World Book Day 2020 will take place on Thursday 5th March. The
children are encouraged to DRESS UP
as their favorite book character. There will be a COMPETITION for the
best costumes with prizes of book vouchers to be used at our Book Fair.
To celebrate World Book Day, we will be hosting a Book Fair, with hundreds of new children’s
books to browse and buy. With prices starting from only £2.99, there’s
sure to be a book for everyone.
When: Thursday 27th February – Thursday 5th March
Times: 8:40 – 9:00 am and 3:00 – 3:45 pm
Where: New Conference Room
If you
are unable to attend the Book Fair, books can be purchased in the following
ways:
- You can browse books online with your child at bookfairs.scholastic.co.uk/parents.
- Your child can select their own book(s) on the day of their class
visit to the Book Fair during the school day. Your child’s teacher will be
able to inform you of the day of the class visit.
To make a purchase send the
money or the
discounted Gift Vouchers purchased online into the school using an
envelope clearly marked with your child’s name, class and title(s) of book(s)
if appropriate and give to your child, teacher or the school office.
Every
child will also receive a mini catalogue and a World Book Day £1 Book Token
on Wednesday 26th February which can be used at the Book Fair. Please check your child’s school bag.
We will also be joining the nationwide event, SHARE A STORY, on World Book Day which
promotes the pleasures of reading. We will be giving out stickers to all the
children who participate. Spending just
10 minutes a day reading and sharing stories with children can make a
crucial difference to their outcomes and it’s fun for all involved. You can
read together anywhere and everywhere, from breakfast to bedtime! Please
join-in!

Don’t forget that every book you buy can help towards FREE
BOOKS for our school library. The
last Scholastic Book Fair was a huge success for St Joseph’s making nearly
£1500 in FREE BOOKS.
Thank
you for your continued support and happy WORLD BOOK DAY!
