New books from The Friends
Sat 30 Jun 2018Throughout the past academic year, The Friends have very kindly funded magazine subscriptions and the purchase of some newly published books for the school library. This is so important as it keeps things fresh for the children and provides great variety. Look under English in our curriculum section to see just what has been chosen.
The Friends have agreed to continue this for the next year so the staff and children would like to say a huge thank you!
