We are delighted to be celebrating the 22nd World Book Day (7th March) in Powerstown E.T.N.S. with a series of in-school events 4th – 8th March 2019. The main aim is to encourage children to explore the pleasure of books and reading. We kicked things off with some shared reading in our assembly families this morning.

Along with various in class activities, we are holding the following events in school during the week that we would love your support in:

  • ‘Strangest Place I Read a Book’photo competition. Please give your photos to class teachers or send by email to aisling@powerstownet.com. Winners announced 7th March.

  • Book Fair: Our book fair will be visiting our school from 5th – 12th of March. Each child has received book tokens for the fair.
  • Dress as a Book Character Day Thursday 7th March: your child is invited to come to school dressed as their favourite book character for the day!
  • Shared Reading:  You are invited to come and join us for ‘Shared Reading’ events in each class during the week. ‘Shared Reading’ is a fun time where parents read story books to small groups of children. Books in other languages are welcomed! Days and times for various classes will be shared later today!
