Scholastic January Book Sale

Hello
I’ve just set up our Scholastic Book Club school group order online. This means you can now order all the books in your Book Clubs leaflet and many more at http://clubs-school.scholastic.co.uk/harlaw-academy and, what’s more, you’ll be able to have your books delivered to school for FREE!
You need to order your books online by Sunday 9th February 2014.  Deadline for cash and cheques (made payable to Harlaw Academy) is Monday 10th February.  After that date, I’ll confirm that all orders are in and the books will be delivered to school for me to hand out in class. For every £1 you spend 20p goes back to our school to spend on much-needed books for our library!
Take a look at what’s on offer here http://clubs-school.scholastic.co.uk/harlaw-academy – there are some great bargains with books costing as little as £1.99!
Best wishes
Mrs A Üstun
