Thornbury Primary School Scholastic Book Fair!
This year, our fantastic book fair fundraiser will be in May, to celebrate Scholastic Family Reading month.
What a great way to resource new books to read with your family and friends and help raise funds for TPS.
The money raised goes directly towards new books for classrooms and our school library.
The book fair will officially open on Tuesday 12th May, after school and then will be open every morning, 8:30 - 8:50 and afternoon, 3:35 - 3:55 until Monday 18th May.
Pre-pay online and pay by card in person.
Each class will visit the Book Fair with their teacher, and students can fill out the "wish list" slip to bring home. If you aren't available to come with your child to the fair before or after school, you can use the back of the slip to pre-pay and send can come back to the fair to collect their books.
Make sure you write the receipt number on the back of the slip.
