Reading for Pleasure

National Non-Fiction November Competition

National Non-Fiction November is the Federation of Children’s Book Groups’ annual celebration of all things factual. The whole month celebrates all those readers that have a passion for information and facts and attempts to bring non-fiction celebration in line with those of fiction.

The theme for this year’s Non-Fiction November was, ‘Why Don’t You?’ which aims to stimulate discussion about hobbies and leisure activities and to encourage children to try something new.

For this year’s competition, the children were invited to create a short ‘advert’ for their hobby. This could be in the form of a video, a poster, a letter or a leaflet, but the focus had to be on ‘Why Don’t You?’ – in other words, encouraging others to have a go.

We were very impressed with all the entries we received within the school. The Junior Librarians helped to vote for our school winners. All entries have been sent off for the national competition.  We will let you know if any are successful. 

We hope you enjoy watching and reading the entries. These can be found in the photo gallery.

We would love to hear if they have inspired you to try something new!
