A short story competition:

Dressing up

On Thursday 2nd March , we ask that all learners come in fancy dress for world book day. Anyone that chooses to dress up will automatically win 3 Achievement Points, they will also be entered into the ‘Best Dressed’ competition that will take place during Lunchtime. As a bonus, we encourage everyone to take part, there’s no cost to dress up but you still have the chance of winning a prize! For the cohort with the most learners in fancy dress, you will win time off timetable on Friday the 3rd March learning session 4 and 5 in the main hall to watch a film based on a book. This will be for all learners in the cohort that wins who came in fancy dress. You will get to vote on what film you watch, and popcorn will be provided!
