World Book Day at Westbourne House School, Chichester

There is nothing more important than encouraging our children to read: Chichester school celebrates World Book Day

Harry Potter, Mr Tickle, Count Olaf, Darrell Rivers, Sherlock Holmes, Oompa Lumpa, The Gruffalo, Jack Sparrow, Willy Wonka, Bertie Wooster, Stickman, Asterix and Little Red Riding Hood were just some of our new pupils who registered at Westbourne House School in Chichester for World Book Day.

From the book game Traitors to Speed Book Dating Westbourne House World Book Day was a whole school, community event.

Westbourne House Headmaster, Martin Barker, said: "Our teachers reviewed books the children chose. Our parents and grandparents talked to each other about the books they loved. Our Prep and Pre-Prep pupils read to each other and discussed their favourite book characters. The costumes were fantastic - there is nothing more important than encouraging our children to read."
