World Book Day 2009 was held at Marybank Primary on Thursday 5th March and involved pupils from Marybank, Strathgarve and Strathconon. There were a number of exciting events including workshops involving local authors Jackie Wood, Erica Munro and Gail Haddock. Other workshops were to design a bookmark, create a sensory book for St Clement’s School and designing a book-themed t-shirt!
In the afternoon, we had a visit from two Caley Thistle players-Eric Odhiambo and Dougie Imrie. They read out limericks and answered questions from the children before they started our ‘Space Hopper Reading Challenge’ relay race (won by Strathconon!).
Photos of the big day will be posted later this week so keep checking back!
