Thank You!

Thank you to those parents who joined us for our wonderful library luncheon. More hands have meant many books are now covered and ready to shelve. I look forward to the next luncheon, watch this space!

Book Club

We’d love to see more members join Book Club this term. Come and join us in the library if you’d like to chat about books that you are reading and the latest releases in our collection. Book Club runs at lunch time every fortnight on Wednesdays. The next meet up is on Wednesday 9 November.
