As many people start to look forward to the festive season, here in the library we have one main focus for the approaching month of December, and it isn’t decorations, presents or mince pies – although all of those will definitely still feature at some point this month. But for the library staff, December is all about The Book Fair!

The book fair will run from 2nd – 5th December, in the library, at both break and lunchtime, and also after school. It’s a great opportunity to stock up on reading materials for the coming year, or pick up some great gifts for friends and family.

Parents will be able to buy gift vouchers in advance, for students to use at the fair, or they can pay online once students have selected the books that they want. Alternatively, students can simply use their own debit card at the fair on the day, once they’ve browsed all the available titles and picked out their favourites. We hope the students will enjoy the book fair.

Also in the library this week we have a Stranger Things theme, with all of our Stranger Things books out on display for anyone who needs to catch up with the storyline ahead of the new season. We’re also embracing the “6 – 7” culture, and we’re displaying all our books with either a 6 or a 7 in the title, whilst also reminding our students that they should be reading 6 or 7 times a week.
