World Book Day 2024

World Book day this year took place on March 7th. At Polygon we helped  continue to develop and celebrate a love for reading, over the course of two days. 

On Wednesday the 6th, the pupils in both KS3 and KS4  got the opportunity to walk down to Waterstones, Asda or The Works, to cash in their world book day vouchers and get their free book. The pupils enjoyed the experience of going book hunting and being able to pick something that they got to keep, as well as have meaningful conversations around a variety of books. 

On the Thursday, both pupils and staff took part in dressing up as characters from their favorite stories. There were some fantastic costumes worn and the pupils even wore theirs whilst doing activities throughout the day such as football and forest school.  

The KS3 pupils also spent some of their English lessons, working in the school Library (reading books and completing quizzes). 

Fantastic effort to everyone involved and we are looking forward to World Book day 2025.
