World Book Day

World Book Day

On Thursday 1st March, World Book Day at Plantation this year will be a celebration of authors, illustrators and books from around the world. As well as celebrating well known authors including David Walliams, Jeff Kinney, Roald Dahl, Jacueline Wilson and J.K. Rowling, this year we will be exploring the world and discovering authors such as Kelly Cunnane, Jeanette Winter, Mari Takabayashi, Robert Arnett and many more. 

As part of the celebrations, we have asked the children to dress in colours or costumes related to the country, culture or flag which their year group is celebrating. This could be dressing in a selected colour from their country's flag or wearing a costume related to the culture (for example traditional Japanese or Indian dress). 

Please see below the list of books and countries which will be celebrated by each year group.
