World Book Day, Thursday 5th March 📚

Thursday 5th March is World Book Day, and to celebrate sharing books and stories, we’ll be celebrating in a number of different ways, and would love you to join in.

The Great Bookish Bake-Off

Children’s books from The Faraway Tree to Harry Potter, The Hungry Caterpillar to The Great Chocoplot are packed with delicious delicacies to tempt our taste buds. We would love to create a book-based cake inspired by your favourite book. Whether it’s all about the decoration, or trying to recreate a famous treat we’ll be looking for creativity and originality, visual impact and relevance to your chosen book. After last year’s amazing entries, we’re really excited to see what you can come up with this year. Miss Roberts has already shown me her bake, can you guess which book character it is?

All entries will be sold in The Barn at the end of the school day to raise funds to buy new library books.

Bedtime Stories

There is nothing better than settling down with someone to share a story at bedtime, so please remember to come to school in your pyjamas and bring your favourite book with you to share with your friends. Please remember, you need to come to school in sensible footwear and must have outdoor shoes for playtimes.

The Big Read

We are also inviting parents/carers to come in to your child’s class at 3.00pm to share stories at the end of our school day.The gates will be unlocked at 2.55pm. Please line up and sign in to go to your youngest child’s class (older siblings will join your there), to join in with our Big Read.

For safeguarding purposes, we will need to close and lock the gate again at 3.00pm, and unfortunately will not be able to let parents in through the main office.

We look forward to seeing you on World Book Day.

We’re Rocking All Over The School!

The whole school went on a musical journey from the 1930’s to modern day with the Coventry Music Rock Band, enjoying some Blues, Rock and Roll, Metal, Funk, Reggae, Disco, Ska, Brit Pop and Pop. Who knew there were so many different musical genres?

Along the way, we heard classic anthems from Elvis, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, James Brown, Queen, David Bowie,  Oasis, Walk The Moon, and Coventry’s own The Specials…

We sang. We danced. We ROCKED!

It’s fantastic to see so many of our children using our school values in and out of school. Congratulations to all of our Stars of the Week and pupils receiving their Bronze Certificate. And, a special mention to both football teams, who played exceptionally well this week, and showed fantastic sportsmanship. Our school community are really proud of you all.

Robin Hood

The whole school had a wonderful time watching Robin Hood this morning.

“Oh no you didn’t!”

“Oh yes we did!”

Singing, dancing, lots of laughs and joining in. Thank you very much for organising such a great end to the week Miss Ashby.

BBC Radio 2 500 Words Competition

Year 5 really enjoyed watching the BBC 500 Words Live Lesson this morning (especially when they saw, “Hello Year 5 from Cannon Park Primary School in Coventry!” scroll across the screen) which gave a whole host of hints, tips and inspirational ideas to the children on how to write a story in just 500 words. This is an amazing competition that really fires the imagination, and celebrates creativity. Anyone wishing to take part can get some help from Miss Cleveland on Tuesday and Thursday lunchtimes in the library.

As well attending a spectacular 500 Words Final at Buckingham Palace where superstar celebrities will read the winning stories live on the radio, six amazing illustrators: Tony Ross, Fiona Lumbers, David McKee, Sue Cheung, David Roberts, and Margaret Sturton – will each be set the task of illustrating one the winning stories.

The winners in each age category will also receive:

Gold Winners – Chris Evans’ height in books and 500 books for their school.

Silver Winners – HRH The Duchess of Cornwall’s height in books.

Bronze Winners – Their own height in books.

There is also a BRAND NEW Prize for 2020 and it doesn’t matter how good your story is just that you enter one. One entrant will be selected at random to receive a fabulous book bundle and an invite to the final (for child plus a parent or guardian). They will also win 500 books for their school – so the more pupils a school has that has entered the more chances they have of winning a brand new library.

Information on how to enter can be found by following this link.
