Welcome to Cherwell World Book Day Online!

Welcome to World Book Day Online!

The 23rd April, Shakespeare's birthday, was nominated this year as World Book Day. On this day school and colleges were invited to join in the biggest ever celebration of books and reading in the UK and Ireland. As Cherwell School's contribution to this event pupils were invited to write a short review of a Fiction book. Book tokens were offered for the best review in each age group and every review which was submitted was published in the form of a booklet, the cover of which was designed by James Weiner.
