World Book Day, also known as World Book and Copyright Day, or International Day of the Book, is an annual event organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to promote reading, publishing, and copyright. World Book Day was first celebrated on 23 April 1995, and continues to be recognized on that day. A related event in the United Kingdom and Ireland is observed in March.
In order to promote the reading culture, Rubygates Preparatory School also participates in World Book Day every year.
This year, we shall be having a guest speaker, in the person of Dr. Dayo Sobowale (R. Engr, LL.B), who shall be talking about “Creating a great future for your child through your and their reading”.
It promises to be an exciting event!
