Collect vouchers when you shop!

We’re collecting Sainsbury’s Active Kids and Tesco for Schools and Clubs vouchers.  They’re a great way to get equipment and resources for our school.  Ask your family, friends and neighbours to collect too.  Post your vouchers in the special collection boxes at the school reception or hand them in to me in the library. 

See how many Tesco vouchers we’ve collected so far on our page at   https://www.tescoforschoolsandclubs.co.uk/promote/50869

Yes, it’s Scholastic Cover2Cover time again.  I’ve just set up our 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 by Monday 14th May 2012. After that date, I’ll confirm that all orders are in and the books will be delivered to school for me to hand out to pupils. 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!
