World Book Day 2016 was perhaps the best ever at Flying Bull. Our day started with a whole school photo of all of the staff and children who had dressed as a book character. Some of the other highlights are below:

Children worked hard on their World Book Day Tasks and in the afternoon children all took park in the illustration competition. Here are some photos of the children hard at work and the winning entries.
