Junior School Resource Centre

Hello from the Library. Big news for this week; Laura Johnson was inducted as the newest and potentially greatest of all book coverers for the Thursday morning team. It's early days yet, but the feeling amongst the tight-knit group was one of excitement. Welcome Laura. If anyone else would like to join us on a Thursday morning from 8:30am - 10:00am in the Junior School library then please feel free; no experience required. As we will be ordering large quantities of resources in preparation for the new library it would be very much appreciated to have any extra hands available.
