Book Fair
We are delighted to announce that we will be hosting a ‘Book People’ book fair in school week beginning 9th October. A selection of books will be available to view in school and an a brochure will be sent home with pupils today. The Book People offer an amazing selection of brilliant books at a fraction of the retail price, so perfect for gifts – especially with Christmas coming up!! And, by purchasing from the book fair, you will be supporting the school to buy new books for learning.

Reminder: Mrs Grant is hosting a community Biscuits and Beetle Drive in school this Thursday, 10-12. With STV’s Sean Batty coming along, this will doubtless be an exciting event!! All welcome! Please spread the word in the Westfield Community.
