Today in Prep and Senior School, we are remembering our Librarian Mrs Harris who recently passed away by holding a 'Wear a Hat Day', raising money for @braintumourrsch. We have already raised nearly £900! If you would like to donate, click here: justgiving.com/fundraising/p…
So pleased for @anthony_mcgowan winning the 2020 Carnegie Medal with his beautiful novel 'Lark'. A few copies still available for our students and staff via our own Remote Library Service. Email us!
Here’s why @anthony_mcgowan’s #Carnegie success means the world:
🌟It’s a win for short novels
🌟It’s a win for working-class stories
🌟Most of all, it shows that accessibility doesn't have to mean compromising on quality or depth!

I have had a lot of fun putting together this padlet for the BBA. Thank you to @HazeleyLibrary for introducing me to this, but now I have to back away from it before it takes over my life!
