World Book Day 2024!

15th March 2024S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

This year’s World Book Day was focused on how children are more likely to enjoy reading when their choices are championed and we make reading fun.

Children and staff were encouraged to wear a costume relating to a book character.

For the full day lessons were focused around WBD.  As part of this pupils were given the opportunity to take part in a school competition where they had to create a blurb and a front cover for a book that they would like to read.  Additionally, they could enter another competition for which their entries will be sent away, this involved them design a national book token.

As part of World Book Day an author called Paula Fowler visited our school to tell us what inspired her to start to write books. She lives locally and is a self-published author of Wizard Beano and Pals.

We had great fun finding out about the two books she has written so far and finding out about the characters in her stories and how she created them.  The themes of the stories are friendship, adventure, helping save the planet and looking after our wellbeing.  We also found out a little bit about the book she is currently writing.

Roald Dahl Day!

20th October 2023S Admin (Biddick Hall Juniors)

We celebrated Roald Dahl Day on Wednesday 13th September.  Staff and children were encouraged to wear yellow (because this was Roald Dahl’s favourite colour) and pay £1 for the Dahlicious charity.  As well as finding out about Roald Dahl and his charity some of our lessons were linked to a Roald Dahl book.

One of the lessons was a competition. We read extracts from the BFG and then linked with this the children drew something in a jar, like the ones the BFG had, that they would like to see in a dream.  We had great fun!
