Book Week NI

22nd Oct 2020

I’m delighted to let you know that Book Week NI is this week and we would really like our school to be involved. 

What is Book Week NI?

Book Week NI is a joint initiative arising from the partnership between BBC Northern Ireland and Libraries NI and the event is now going into its fifth year.


This year’s focus

This year’s theme is Stories and Storytelling; focusing on stories that matter to each one of us and encouraging everyone to participate and share stories from books that matter to them.

The aim is to inspire people of all ages to discover or rediscover the joy of reading by pledging to take 15 minutes to read during and preferably throughout the week. This is particularly prevalent with key messages such as encouraging parents and carers to read and share stories with children. Can we read together for 15 minutes at some stage this week? I think we can all make an effort to do this as we are off school and have more time than normal.
