Book Bug and Read, Write, Count:
Our P1, P2 and P3 children, parents and carers enjoyed a story read by our senior librarians. We all shared our love of reading and stories together. Thank you to our parents and carers for coming.
Author Visits:
Thomas Clark – Thomas is a Scottish author who came to visit Chatelherault to tell us all about his Scot’s comic ‘Eejit Street’ and even signed some autographs.
Fiona MacGregor – Fiona, author of ‘The Canny Capercaillie’ was welcomed by P7. They had great fun using a variety of props and percussion instruments to accompany the story.
Bernie Hollywood – Bernie inspired a book entitled “Bernie and Boatie” which is all about helping children’s mental health after his journey rowing across the Atlantic ocean to raise money for charity.
Our Recommendations:
Here you will find some recommended reads from some of the children in our school. These books will be available throughout the school if you would like to give them a try.
Book Drop:
Our librarians very kindly donated some recommended reads to our local community.
Our New Releases:
Here you will find our new releases each month that will be available to check out from the library (after you have seen them in our Borrow Barrow).
The Masked Reader:
Can you work out which member of staff is behind the mask and which book they are reading an excerpt from? These videos will be shown at assembly each month and the children will have an opportunity to guess who it is! The children who guess right will win 10 house points!
