20 pupils from S2 will be going to see Scottish author Barry Hutchison next week to celebrate World Book Day. Barry is the author of the Invisible Fiends series and the Afterworlds series. Visit his website to find out more.
Blind Date with a Book This Valentine’s Challenge is running until the end of February. All you have to do is borrow a book from the special display in the library and complete a very short review.

One person who hands in their review will be chosen at random to win the prize!
