    4 Mar 2021

    WORLD Book Day became the latest event to take place under lockdown on Thursday (March 4) – but that didn’t stop pupils at Henry Hinde Infant and Junior Schools from marking the occasion. Instead of going to school dressed in their pyjamas or as their favourite book character, children took part in a host of fun reading and writing activities in school and at home. Throughout the week, staff at the Infant School chose a range of classic bedtime stories to read to pupils at home as part of a series of short videos, while each year group picked an author to learn about, explore their books and carry out a range of challenges linked to the stories. And Year 2 pupils who were in school had the chance to set up their own reading dens, to share their favourite books with their friends.
