World Book Day 2021
You've all heard of 'The Masked Singer', the surreal and surprising singing show that asks: "Who is behind the mask?" Well now, just for the community of Newfield Park Primary School, we have 'The Masked Reader'!
Members of staff will wear a virtual mask and read an extract from one of their favourite books with a changed voice. They will then leave clues for you to guess who they are.
Videos will be released every day next week. The following day, the ‘Masked Readers’ from the previous day will be revealed so you can see if your guesses are right! Can you guess correctly? Keep checking the website to find out who’s behind the mask!
Below there is a sheet you can record your guesses on if you wish!
