World Book Day celebrated its 25th birthday this year and frankly we love an excuse to dress up so it was great fun to see all the staff at Cannamore dressed as their favourite literary characters and talking with the students about the different books they enjoy and feel inspired by.
With the core message of “You Are A Reader”, this year’s campaign aimed to encourage reading for enjoyment at all ages. Reading for pleasure is the single biggest indicator of a child’s future success– more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income. It was great to have the opportunity to really focus on the joy of reading for a day.
