Embracing a love of books
Well, another year and another Book Fair has come and almost gone. I was anticipating a final frenzied lunchtime of boys not-quite-running into the library and gazing at the books in the cases whilst trying to work out if they have enough money to buy two books and an eraser shaped like a dinosaur.
Yet again the boys have embraced the magical and exciting opportunities to choose and pay for books on their own terms in the Book Fair. It has been a delight to see so many of them in the library poring over books.
We don't have a final figure yet for how much money we took this week - but it was a lot! Thank you so much for supporting the school's Book Fair. It will enable us to purchase more books for school from Scholastic, the company behind the fair.
I have nearly 100 books on order for boys and these will come next week, hopefully at the start of the week. I will distribute these to boys as quickly as I am able.
And now I'm off to lie in a darkened room...
Mrs Rees, Librarian.
