“Our students really enjoyed the workshops and continue to talk about Bookman this week. They particularly loved the assembly and were very shocked when Bookman came stumbling out of the cupboard – this was such a fantastic way to start the buzz and excitement for WBD celebrations. We are currently in the process of putting together a ‘Bookman’ display in our school corridor which continues to encourage the children’s conversations around Bookman. All our children were engaged from Nursery through to Year 6 as it was made relatable and age appropriate for each group – this was really important for us.” A Visit from Bookman Workshops, Tanners Wood Primary School
