OSJ is getting ready for World Book Day - 07.03.2024

Date: 4th Mar 2024 @ 8:29pm

Everyone is busy here at Over St. John's getting ready for World Book Day on Thursday 7th March. Here is a reminder about our plans for this year.

Our theme is being unique, being diverse, being you! We are asking our children to come dressed as themselves in their favourite clothes to show their friends just how special they are!

During the day, each class will learn part of Benjamin Zephaniah's poem 'People will always need people'. Each class will record their part and we shall have a whole school recital of this beautiful poem. Keep a look out for our World Book Day blogs later in the week.

Each class has also chosen a book that they will use as inspiration for the day based on our theme:

Hatchmere - The Hueys in the New Jumper by Oliver Jeffers	Sandymere - I could be a Superhero by Chris Hornsey	Delamere - Leaf by Sandra Diechmann
Oakmere - We're All Wonders by RJ Palacio	Linmere - Blue Chameleon by Emily Gravett	Blakemere - Malala's Magic Pencil by Malala Yousafzia

We hope you are all looking forward to it!
