On Monday and Tuesday 31 May and 1 June, the summer Bookfairs took place for the Junior and Senior schools. This is a great opportunity for students to choose the books they like; with summer approaching there will be more time for relaxing reading, especially for those students who will have finished their exams! Proceeds from the Bookfairs go to purchasing additional books for the Libraries – we thank parents for their support.
