After the peace of the summer holidays it is great to see the library buzzing again at break and lunchtime.  Hope you all managed to find some time to read. Here are just some of the novels I made my way through this summer. Looking forward to the senior staff book discussion tomorrow break.

Exciting plans for the term ahead- more origami events, "Secret Book Club" for S3- S6, a new coding club. Watch out in the advertiser to learn more of the various events which will be held in the library.
