World Book Day – 23 April 2021

World Book and Copyright Day is a celebration to promote the enjoyment of books and reading.

Each year, on 23 April, celebrations take place all over the world to recognise the magical power of books – a link between the past and the future, a bridge between generations and across cultures. On this occasion, UNESCO and the international organizations representing the three major sectors of the book industry:

  • Publishers
  • Booksellers
  • Libraries


The living through learning event: 

Coronation Fund Managers donated 1000 storybooks to deliver to the foundation phase learners at 20 disadvantaged schools in the Western Cape. All of the 20 schools will read at 09:00 to create a massive reading celebration for World Book Day! All 20 schools are connected to the Living through Learning literacy programme and we encourage and love READING!
