World Book Day
By Ms N McDermott
De La Salle College Celebrates World Book
Day with a Love for Reading
On March 7th, 2024, De La Salle College
immersed itself in the magic of literature to
celebrate World Book Day. Students and staff
participated in a school-wide Drop
Everything and Read event, where everyone
paused their activities to indulge in the joy of
reading.
In addition to fostering a love for reading,
the school distributed book tokens to
encourage students to venture to their local
book shop and purchase some new books.
Throughout the day, classrooms buzzed with
discussions about students’ favourite books,
sharing cherished tales and inspiring others
to dive into new literary worlds.
World Book Day at De La Salle College was
not just a celebration of literature but a
reminder of the transformative power of
words. By encouraging reading and fostering
a culture of literary appreciation, the school
continues to nurture a community of lifelong
learners and avid readers.
