Thanks to your support and generosity, our annual Book Fair took £2,031.
This has raised £1,219 in commission, which will be spent on books to support English lessons and book prizes for a variety of literary challenges.
Once again, a big “THANK YOU”!
Everyone is involved in making our Fairs a success: our customers (of course!) but also our student Fair Makers.
A BIG BIG “THANK YOU” to Chloe C and Tallula P in Y7 who gave up lots of lunchtimes to staple together more than 500 letters and Fair fliers publicising our Fair
and to Eva MacD and Chloe S in Y6, who provided lots of support every break time during Fair Week and helped to set up the Fair, distribute orders and tidy up on the last day.
There was a great deal to do and we simply couldn’t have done it without you!
Celebrating World Book Day
We collected £300 to support the work of Book Aid International in getting books to children in parts of the world that have none. Thank you to all those who supported this worthwhile charity which makes it possible for children in desperate need to learn to read, the first step towards helping themselves out of poverty.
The number of students spending the day in character this World Book Day was astonishing and a real pleasure to witness! The costumes were tremendous, making the job of judging extremely difficult. Just take a look at the prize-winners!
Thank you to everyone who dressed up, whether or not you made your own costume. Your efforts contributed to making World Book Day special – and that’s what it’s all about!
Enormous thanks to Eva Mac in 6P and Chloe S in 6B for patiently naming more than 500 World Book Day tokens so everyone could be sure of getting one in time for our Book Fair. You really are heroines!
