Broadford Library Weekly Newsletter - 23/09/24

    

Welcome to the Broadford Library Weekly Newsletter! 
Each week, we will be bringing you a look back on the previous week in the library, including the fun that our lunchtime library clubs have had, new books, children's book reviews, library displays and much more! 
~ Miss Flower and Mrs Jobber, Librarians & Reading Champions ~



Lunchtime library clubs
Last week, we welcomed back our two Library lunchtime clubs. The children enjoyed listening to The Chatterbox Bear, a comical story all about differences and individuality. They then had great fun designing their own All About Me activity sheet.  



Book Fair
Thank you so much to everyone who purchased books at last week's Book Fair. Together, your purchases enabled us to buy 20 lovely new books for our school library. 



Library displays
Last week, we continued to shine our Author Spotlight on Roald Dahl, whose books are some of the most popular and frequently borrowed in the library. 




New in the library
We were very lucky to recently receive a lovely donation of lots of Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, which are always very popular in the library.



Book reviews
Eddie in Year 6 recommended The Unlikely Rise of Harry Sponge by Stephen Mangan. He thought it was hilarious and gave it 5 stars!



Visitors to the library
The children have been very excited to see Theo back at school. They love sharing stories with Theo and enjoy giving him a gentle stroke. 




Spinebreakers
Last week, we excitedly introduced our new Spinebreakers for 2024/25. We are now busy planning library and Waterstones trips, as well as lots of ways the Spinebreakers will be getting involved at school this year.

Urgent request - Returning borrowed library books
We have had lots of lovely new books added to the library collection over the past couple of months but, unfortunately, many of them have been borrowed by children and never returned to the library. Please can you check at home to see if you have any Broadford library books (stamped inside/Broadford logo attached). If you do, please pass them to your child to return to the library asap, where our Book Monster is waiting to eat them! Thank you.
