BOOK FAIR

 

BOOK FAIR

We had a fantastic BOOK FAIR in our bright and spacious New Conference Room. 
Every class had a chance to visit the Fair to listen to new stories, browse and buy books.
All the children were excited as it was like having their very own Bookshop in school.


CONGRATULATIONS

Together we raised nearly £2,500.00 which means we have 
nearly £1,500.00 to spend on new books for our library.

We have already received our first delivery of new books.

We have just received a delivery of new books to enhance our
growing stock of books that support our commitment to being an inclusive school.

It is important that every child should be able to see themselves in the books that they read. 


We have 'Kiki Kalira Breaks a Kingdom, a joyful adventure inspired by Hindu legends, 'What Lexie Did' featuring the escapades of a London-based Greek-Cyriot family,  'Anisha, Accidental Detective' and 'Hair Love' with a BAME main character.


We also have books with neurodivergent characters such as 'Can You See Me? and ' Pablo and the Noisy Party' whose main character has autism or 'Double Felix', a story that deals with living with OCD. We also have books in which there are characters with various medical conditions such as 'The Extraordinary Colours of Auden Dare' which deals with colour-blindness.


Our language book corner is growing with books in a wide-range of world languages such as 
Chinese, Ukrainian, Hindu, German and Polish. Many of these books are dual-language and are aimed at all age and reading levels.
