Today was World Book Day – always a crowd pleaser at The Maynard! Girls of all ages had a riotous time celebrating everything books, books, books. Whether their favourite reads are classic fantasy, modern sci-fi, thrilling mystery or something in-between, there was something for absolutely everyone to enjoy.
Just a few of today’s activities…
- As always, a fantastic selection of book-themed fancy dress in the Pre-Prep and Junior School!
- A Pre-Prep and Junior assembly featuring a great guessing game, with teachers reading our their favourite book passages and girls decoding which book they’re from.
- Over in the Senior School, girls got creative and decorated classroom doorways just like a book cover, but on a much bigger scale!
- Upper 3 (Year 7) and Lower 4 (Year 8) were on the edge of their seats in a workshop with best-selling children’s author, Hana Tooke, creating their own mystery stories guided by prompts.
- For a tasty lunchtime treat, girls designed gingerbread with a book character of choice. Of course, their works of art also made scrumptious snacks after the fact!
