The Christmas Book Fair was a great way to get everyone into the festive spirit and select a good book for the holidays. The fair was very well attended by students and staff alike, some doing some early Christmas shopping, others just in search of their next read! As well as books, there was a huge collection of colourful stationery and posters of everything from the latest movies, to popstars and the periodic table!

The Fair generated over £545. Most excitingly, in thanks, Scholastic, the fair provider, will gift the Library with a great selection of brand new books for everyone to enjoy. Students can keep an eye on the new stock list in future newsletters to see some of the new titles! Students are also welcome to ask Mr Rodgers if there is a book they want to read that the Library doesn’t have.
