International World Book Day (WBD) was celebrated by the SWPS community and the Library. With an array of events and competitions organised throughout the week, students were provided with lots of different ways to celebrate their love of reading.

World Book Day Competitions

Students across the school were encouraged to draw upon their creativity and artistic abilities to invent a unique Potato Head Character. Another activity for World Book Day included creating ‘BookFace’ images, in which students selected a book and substituted the cover with a part of themselves.  Some of the winning entries can be seen below.

Murder Mystery House Competition

In an exciting twist to World Book Day celebrations, the Library transformed into a murder mystery setting for a House Competition centred around the game “The Curious Case of the Clockwork Cleaner”. Within their Houses, students were tasked with solving the crime to accumulate House points, with Londsale emerging victorious.

We hope the whole SWPS community enjoyed engaging in our WBD celebrations and are inspired to embrace the magic of books and celebrate the joy of reading.
