World Book Day 2024

The 7th of March 2024 was long penciled into the Moynalvey NS diary – World Book Day! Each year pupils across Ireland celebrate the magic and wonder of books, comics, literature and reading and Moynalvey NS is no exception.

Many of the pupils dressed up as their favourite book characters for the parade including Willy Wonka, Fairytale princess, Harry Potter and Greg Heffley! Some of the stand out costumes included the Three Little Pigs in 4th class and DogMan in 1st class. Even Mr. Brennan donned his Ravenclaw robes from his days in Hogwarts posing for pictures alongside Pippi Longstocking, Where’s Wally, Hermione Granger, Little Red Riding Hood and Olive Oyl from Popeye! All were there on display for a parade.

Pupils spent a wonderful day of activities completing table quizzes, older students doing paired reading with their younger peers and engaging in reading activities. In the run up to the day, students created book characters using potatoes. Likewise some of the famous book characters in potato form included Hermione Granger, Spider-Man and the Rainbow Fish!

Well done to all pupils, parents and staff for making World Book Day exceptional in Moynalvey NS. Well done to Ms. Helen Carty for organising the events.
