Library Opening

The library is finished and this week has been road tested by children from across the school having story time in luxury. We held our grand opening event today with a day packed with book related fun; from sharing their favourite books, Mad Hatter’s Read Parties in Year 3 and 4 to a human chain of books to transfer the last few titles from the old library, tucked away at the top of the old building, to their shiny new home. The ribbon was officially cut and the library declared open for browsing. As ever this has been a team affair but special mention must go to Miss Kennedy-Alexander, Mrs Dent, Mr Wicks and Mr Thorne who have pulled everything together. After the half term break, please feel free to pop in to visit the library with your children after school. It will take a little time to train the children up to use our new Reading Cloud system - an online system which enables us to closely track who’s reading what! Once we have introduced this fully, you will be able to change library books with your child before and after school. Watch out for more details about this in the near future.
