The Week Ahead – 23rd November 2015

It’s Book Week Scotland 2015 – time to look out books, old and new, and get reading! This week our Website Committee are running a ‘Guess the Selfie’ competition and all children are asked to take a photograph hiding behind their favourite book. Entries can be emailed to gw14udstonpsinfo@glow.sch.uk or, ideally, printed and sent into school. If children are unable to take a photograph, they can participate by drawing a picture of themselves holding their favourite book. The class which submit the most entries will win a special prize!

Book Week Scotland – ‘Guess the Selfie’ Competition

11

Next week (23rd November) marks the start of Book Week Scotland 2015. To raise awareness of this special week, and for a bit of fun, our Website Committee members are running a ‘Guess the Selfie’ competition. Children are invited to take a photograph of themselves hiding behind their favourite book – their classmates and teachers will then try and guess whose ‘selfie’ belongs to whom. If possible, children should print their ‘selfie’ and bring it into school. Alternatively, they can email their ‘selfies’ to gw14udstonpsinfo@glow.sch.uk. If children are unable to take a photograph, they can participate by drawing a picture of themselves holding their favourite book. Entries should be submitted by no later than Thursday 26th November.

This is a great opportunity for children to get reading and is a fun way of sharing their favourite books with their peers. We really appreciate your support with this competition and we will enjoy looking at the ‘selfie’ entries in class and at next week’s assembly.

Below are some examples from our Web Committee…
