Neatherd High School: World Book Day on Thursday 2nd March is non uniform for students who choose to come dressed as a named character from a book/ comic strip/ magazine (not just a film). If they choose not to dress up then they must wear their normal school uniform. If students want to come dressed as named characters who wear normal everyday clothes then they must show that they are that character by using ‘props’ from the book i.e.- if the character uses a camera and writes news stories then they must create a ‘press pass’ and wear an old camera around their neck. Muggles are not ‘named’ characters… If they choose to come to school in costume then they must be dressed appropriately- no hooped earrings, short skirts, low cut tops etc… The cost for dressing up is £1 per family which goes to pay for a patron of reading. Currently we have Alex Scarrow as our Patron of Reading and all students are benefitting.
