Book Fair – Thank You!

Last week we had another very successful Book Fair in school. It was lovely to see so many of our pupils and parents being enthusiastic about books and reading. Thank you to everyone who purchased a book, and with your help, we are going to receive almost £1000 of free books to support our reading programme in school.

Pupils in P6a, P7a and P7b were a great help in running the Book Fair – thank you for your help.

Look out for another opportunity to buy a new book to enjoy, at our next Book Fair!
