CLASSROOMS were almost unrecognisable last week as pupils dressed up as their favourite storybook characters as part of World Book Day, write Katie Carabine and Monica Gibson.
This year marks the 20th year that World Book Day has been designated by UNESCO as a worldwide celebration, with schools, clubs and businesses in more than 100 countries taking part. The annual event is designed to encourage more children to read.
St Columba’s RC Primary School in Fort William had a fantastic time getting into character.
