World Book Day

Our Lady of Grace had a fantastic time celebrating World Book Day! Thursday and Friday were filled with a variety of exciting activities designed to foster a love of reading amongst our pupils. We were fortunate to welcome Julian, an artist who worked with our Year 5 pupils to create new artwork for our library. Their favourite book characters will soon be proudly displayed for everyone to enjoy. We were also delighted to host Marcello Salas, a local author, who delivered two inspiring assemblies and led creative writing workshops for our Year 2 pupils. Parents were warmly welcomed into school to take part in reading sessions with their child and other pupils from the class. Our dedicated staff joined in the fun by dressing up as a range of book characters, while pupils took part in a treasure hunt around the school. Following reading clues, they travelled from classroom to classroom meeting different characters along the way until they finally discovered the treasure! All pupils had the opportunity to visit our new library, and many enjoyed shared reading sessions with older or younger peers. Key Stage 2 pupils also took part in the National Literacy Trust’s Footy and Book Quiz online. It was a wonderful celebration of reading and storytelling, and a fantastic opportunity to share our love of books across the whole school community.

Social Media and Online Safety Workshop

Today, Year 5 welcomed Mr Taylor, who gave a talk about social media and mobile phone safety. He discussed the appropriate age limits for different apps and emphasised that online friends are strangers. The children enjoyed sharing their own experiences, including their social media habits and what their parents do and don’t know about how they use their devices. We also talked about how to report and block anything that makes us feel uncomfortable online.     We will share the presentation here when it is available.
