A fantastic day was had at world Book Day here at Scoil Naomh Eltin.
Pupils and teachers alike dressed up as their favourite book character. Spirits were high and all students were budding book worms. Delighted to have had the opportunity to purchase new books from our annual Scholastic Book Fair, that has been open at school this past week.Pupils have been purchasing a variety of texts varying from picture story books to factual and fictional narratives and some flashy pieces of stationery! Our school benefits from all books purchased by students, as we get a percentage to spend on school literacy resources, which is a welcome added bonus!
Pupils listened to the first Chapter of many books where the actual author of the book reads aloud to them. Pupils also received reading award certificates for great reading! Pupils also engaged in shared/ paired reading with younger classes.
