World Book Day 2025

World Book Day

Our school celebrated World Book Day on Thursday, March 6th. The children engaged in many “book themed” activities to mark the day. All pupils were invited to dress up as a book character and it was wonderful to see such creativity in their costumes. The Parents’ Association kindly organised prizes for costumes in each class. The winners of these prizes were:
Junior Infants: Fionn Barrett
Senior Infants: Olivia Chernel
First Class: Ronán Ludwig
Second Class: Ava Dillon
Third Class: Manuela Bento Xavier
Fourth Class: Ellie Horgan
Fifth Class: Dylan Corbett
Sixth Class: Patrick Mulkere
The junior classes enjoyed a book character parade while the senior classes took part in book quizzes, book reviews, buddy reading and fifth and sixth classes even made their own books! Pupils were also awarded book tokens to celebrate an excellent effort in their reading.
Junior Infants: Michael McGann
Senior Infants: Kealan Dillon & Jack Tuohey
First Class: Hannah Collins
Second Class: Rita Mulkere
Third Class: Sadie McMahon
Fourth Class: Hubert Jasinski & Annie Murphy
Fifth Class: Gearóid McNamara & Ryan Holian
Sixth Class: Henry O’ Shea
All pupils were given a World Book Day voucher which they can use to buy their own book. We hope that everyone had a great day and the most important message from World Book Day is to keep reading!
