Primary in Action

Book Week

In Book Week we heard from award winning author, Sue Whiting, who enthralled students with her stories and writing techniques, including how to generate ideas for engaging stories.

Mr Watson read the book, voted by NBCS students as their favourite of the CBCA shortlisted books: Three by Stephen Michael King.

Our students dressed as characters from their favourite books and we heard about how their chosen character had encouraged them.
