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!

Book Fair
Thank you so much to everyone who supported us by purchasing books at our Book Fair last week. Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to add an amazing 56 new books to our library collection!
Raising Readers at Home
Our new, regular library blog series all about helping parents and carers to grow, encourage and nurture children's love of reading at home continued last week with tips on how your home can help create strong readers. You can read more here
Lunchtime library club
Last Wednesday, our lunchtime library club took part of a variety of VE Day/World War 2-related activities. Children also enjoyed completing the Reading Challenge to accompany it.
Chatterbooks sessions
Last week, the KS1 Chatterbooks groups continued with the story The Very Hungry Caterpillar! Everyone enjoyed a variety of activities.
KS2 Chatterbooks groups last week continued enjoying There's A Snake In My School! by David Walliams. Everyone got creative and made lovely paper snakes!
Library displays
To commemorate last Thursday’s VE Day 80th anniversary, we displayed a wide selection of books about World War 2 for children to read, as well as a special Reading Challenge for them to take part in.
105 Books reading achievements
Well done to Medhansh, Charlie, Luca and Zofia who have received their Silver Certificates for reading 10 books.

Earn your Blue Peter Reading Badge! See how you can take part here or pick up an entry form from the library.
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.
