--- title: "Year 4 'Book Tasting'" url: "https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/news/2023-03-03-year-4-book-tasting" school: "St Andrew's Church of England Primary School" --- # Year 4 'Book Tasting' ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/news/DSC_1899.JPG) 3 March 2023 Following on from World Book Day, Year 4 were lucky enough to get a reservation at the 'Book Tasting' restaurant. The children were able to 'taste' a selection of books from a variety of genres and authors to encourage them to branch out from what they would usually read. The menu included: poetry and rhyming books, picture books, graphic novels and magazines, classic novels, books by famous authors (such as Michael Morpurgo, Roald Dahl and Enid Blyton) and non-fiction texts. The children then left a review from one book that they tried on each table to help them decide which they would like to read in the future. Some reviews that the children left included: "I liked the blurb of this book and I have seen the film so I think I will read it" "I liked the pictures but it would be better if it had more words to go with them" "I know my brother enjoys these books so I might read them too" "I liked the poem book because it made reading more fun" [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1899.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1899.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1901.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1901.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1905.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1905.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1907.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1907.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1912.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1912.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1918.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1918.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1920.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/gallery/year-4-book-tasting/DSC_1920.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/dd_1.jpg)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/news/2023-02-27-year-1-dinosaur-day) Previous ### [Year 1 - Dinosaur Day!](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/news/2023-02-27-year-1-dinosaur-day) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/DSC_1768.JPG)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/news/2023-03-18-world-book-day-2023) Next ### [World Book Day 2023](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/news/2023-03-18-world-book-day-2023) - [![Values-based Education](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/quality_mark.thumb.png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/teaching-and-learning/values-based-education) - [![SIAMS](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/SIAMS.png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/achievements/siams-report) - [![International School Award](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/ISA-Logo-colour-3.png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/teaching-and-learning/international-school-award) - [![RRSA](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner_(7).png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/achievements/rights-respecting-school) - [![Showcase School](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner.png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/achievements/microsoft-showcase) - [![Young Carers](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/Award_Logo_-_2026-2029_(8)3.png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/school-information/young-carers) - [![Storytelling](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner_(2).png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/achievements/storytelling) - [![Healthy School](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner_(6).png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/school-information/lunch-menu) - [![Arts Council](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner_(5).png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/achievements/artsmark-gold) - [![Fairtrade](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner_(4).png)](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/achievements/fairtrade) - ![Every Child](https://files.schudio.com/st-andrew-s-cofe-primary-school/images/partners/St_Andrews_Partner_(3).png) ##### Location Station Road Chinnor Oxfordshire OX39 4PU ##### Contact Us 01844 351353 ##### Stay Connected - [X](https://x.com/StAndrewsOxon) © Copyright 2017–2026 St Andrew's Church of England Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.st-andrews.oxon.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
