World Book Day takes place next Thursday, 4th March! In 2021 World Book Day, just like everything else, will be different, but it has adapted to make sure that World Book Day sends a powerful and positive message about books and reading, even in lockdown. Although it has not been possible to distribute actual book tokens to all pupils due to current circumstances, everyone is  invited to join the biggest celebration of books and shared reading, whether you're at home with family or at school on the day, as  pupils can  receive a digital version of the book token by clicking on the following link:
