Bitterne Manor's WONDERFUL WORLD BOOK DAY!

Last week Bitterne Manor finally celebrated their LOVE of reading and took part in world book day! It was absolutely amazing seeing everyone dressed down in their favourite pjs, including members of staff too! All in all, children had fun taking part in reading activities planned in class, the story treasure hunt displayed in the learning lab, listening to a teacher read at lunchtime and sharing their favourite book with another class peer! Prizes for the 'eXtreme reading' competition and the story treasure hunt will be handed out this week during Wednesday's assembly. All the pictures handed in were incredible and it's been a very tough job picking the most unusual! Well done to those who entered, you ALL did brilliantly!

Here's a sneak peek of the day itself...

Fairy Tale Day

Thank you to all the parents of Robins class, the costumes were amazing today.

We spent the day this morning decorating a gingerbread man (and trying our hardest not to eat all of the toppings), ordering the story The Gingerbread Man, decorating shields and using 2d shapes to create castles.

This afternoon we learnt how to waltz using the 1, 2, 3 count. We had some absolute pros at this.  Check out the video as well.

We then ended our day with a banquet.  The children thoroughly enjoyed this, we even invited Mr Adams and Mrs Egerton to join the fun.

  We as adults and the children have enjoyed our day and learnt lots about fairy tales as well as different ways to work together. The pictures reflect just how much the children enjoyed today.

Fairy tale

Today is not only the day for us to dress up as our favourite fairy tale character a mystery door also arrived in the classroom. The children are very intrigued as to who put in there, maybe we will find out later today or in our topic.

Excellent Me Day!

Wow!  What an amazing day it has been today!  Everyone made such a SUPER effort to dress up as something they would like to be when they grow up, including the members of staff! Thank you so much for taking part!

Here are some fab pics capturing today's event...
