Dyslexia Scotland Flyer November 2014

To celebrate the 10th  year of sponsoring the Edinburgh International Book Festival, the ScottishPower Foundation is offering one lucky primary school in Glasgow and one in Edinburgh and the Lothians the chance to win the ultimate library makeover and their very own book festival.

We love books and we know how important reading is to schools; that’s why we’ve launched the Library Energiser competition. Whether your school has a library, reading room or poetry corner, this is your opportunity to turn that space into the ultimate bookworm’s haven.

To enter the competition, simply tell us in 100 words how you’d like to transform your library into your perfect reading area.  Return your entry to Miss Oattes (P6-P7)/ Miss Cumming (P3-P5) by Friday 19 September.

The winning school will be given a makeover worth £2,000 to help create the perfect reading space, whether that be with a lick of paint, new furniture or a stash of the latest books. The revamped library will be officially opened by a renowned Scottish author at the school’s very own mini book festival.

 Good luck !

Please complete your 100 words on this template and email to Miss Cumming at CummingK@mearns.e-renfrew.sch.uk
