World Book Day

  We will be celebrating World Book Day on THURSDAY 6TH MARCH 2025!

To coincide with this year's 'Read Your Way' theme, we are inviting children to come into school on World Book Day in either their Favourite Character Costume or their Snuggly Pyjamas. 

Please remember, as this time of year is particularly cold, it is really important that the children are dressed appropriately and have suitable footwear (such as long sleeves, trousers and outdoor shoes) to be able to enjoy any outdoor activities on the day.


Lunchtime library club
Last Monday, the children enjoyed a variety of Traditional Tales activity sheets. We also had a few children who have collected 5 stars on their Library card and received a prize. 





Chatterbooks sessions
Last week, the KS1 Chatterbooks groups enjoyed listening to Elmer! They all took part completing a variety of activities and joined in a group discussion about differences. 





KS2 Chatterbooks groups continued enjoying Chicken Clicking, an engaging book all about helping children to stay safe online. Some of the groups had great fun making their own chicks, while others got creative with Internet Safety colouring sheets.





Library Displays
'If you liked the movie, then read the book!'
We have a great selection of Bad Guys and Dog Man graphic novels available for children to enjoy.




Librarian Awards
Last week, a special Librarian Award certificate was awarded to Nikita in Year 4, who generously purchased some wonderful new books for the library. What a superstar!

A special Librarian Award certificate was also awarded to Elena, Dilan and family for their amazing donation of a huge amount of wonderful books for the library! Thank you so much.




105 Books reading achievements
Well done to Tala and Kindah who have received their Bronze Certificates for reading five books.

Well done to Luna who has received her Silver Certificate for reading 10 books.

Earn your Blue Peter Reading Badge! See how you can take part here or pick up an entry form from the library.  


Urgent request - Returning borrowed library books
We have had lots of lovely new books added to the library collection over the past couple of months but, unfortunately, many of them have been borrowed by children and never returned to the library. Please can you check at home to see if you have any Broadford library books (stamped inside/Broadford logo attached). If you do, please pass them to your child to return to the library asap, where our Book Monster is waiting to eat them! Thank you.
