On Friday 16th June 2023 we will be celebrating Pyjamarama! At Carcroft Primary School we really value the importance of reading and we are going to take part in this special day to celebrate the love of books and reading.
Children will be spending the day reading, enjoying, and sharing stories all in the comfort of their pyjamas, to encourage children to read for pleasure.
During the school day each crew will participate in a range of exciting activities including sharing their favourite books, listening to other children and staff reading their favourite books, reenacting stories through drama and lots more fun activities! We hope that these will support our drive to maintain, promote and engage our children’s interest in reading. Each Crew Leader will create a blog at the end of the day so that you can all see the exciting things that your child/ren have been getting up to throughout the day!
As part of this exciting day we are asking for the children (and staff!) to come to school dressed in their pyjamas or comfy clothes! As always please make sure that these are appropriate for the school day. Children are welcome to wear their slippers but we would advise that children bring these in a separate bag and then change into them once inside the school building.
For this occasion we will not be asking for any donations.
In preparation for the day it would be lovely for you to share some of your favourite stories with your child/ren and also encourage them to share theirs with you, and if they don’t have one maybe discuss what books they love to read or share some books together.
As part of this day, and in connection with Father’s Day on Sunday 18th June we would like to welcome all male family members into school, such as a dad, grandad, papa, uncle, brother, whoever is important to your child/ren to share a book together. For every crew this will be at 2:30 until the end of the day. We hope to see as many of you there as possible!
We look forward to seeing your child/ren dressed in their pyjamas for this special celebration!
