Pop into your School Library this week

We managed to raise £164 for Read for Good last term, well done to all pupils and staff involved and thank you to Tesco for their support by providing us with enough fruit to give every pupil taking part a snack at break time to fuel their reading. An excellent effort all round.

Last Years P7 Digital Video Tour
So around about this time last year when we were starting our planning for our Covid friendly P7 transition activities I came up with the idea of filming a wee video tour of the library as seeing is believing and I love showing the books. The big difference this year is we have brand new fire doors and windows on the front and back entrance to the Library. Anyway have a view and I’ll look to film a new one this year.
