The much loved Book Fair arrived in school yesterday, Friday 1st March and will remain with us for one full week. We have an exciting week planned with lots of interesting and fun events taking place at a whole school level and also in individual classrooms. The children will receive sponsorship cards on Monday for our Readathon which begins on Tuesday and continues for the week. The children will be given book tokens for World Book Day, which is on Thursday 7th March. On this day the Book Fair will be open in the evening and and we are delighted to have a visit from our special guest, Billy Roche, who will entertain us with two sessions, one for Junior classes and one for Senior classes. Other events taking place include a book quiz, a reading tree, an online question and answer session with Cressida Cowell, auothor of “How to train your dragon” series, a writing competition as Gaeilge, “Scéal Eile” and much more! Second class will attend a Creative Writing Workshop on Friday 8th in Wexford Library.
