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!

Lunchtime library clubs
Last week, our two Library lunchtime clubs enjoyed their last session with a delicious treat. They had lots of fun completing a Summer Activity Booklet and enjoyed colouring their own personalised bookmark. Thank you for coming to our Lunchtime Library Club, we look forward to continuing with the clubs in September. Farewell to our Year 6 children who attended our Library Clubs. You will be missed!
Library displays
It is that exciting time of the year again where we get ready for all the fun Summer Reading activities. Every child will shortly receive a Summer Reading Tracker that they can complete and return to school by Friday September 6th 2024.
Everyone will also receive a bookmark from our local library. This year's National Summer Reading Challenge theme is Marvellous Makers! Head down to your local library or sign up online by visiting their website.
New in the library
This year, we have set up an exciting new challenge for all Year Groups. Each class will be competing with their year group to see who can return the most library books back to the library before: Wednesday 17th July 2024.
Can you help your child's class to win!
Borrowed library books brought back from home = 1 point
Any books with our 'Library Return' tags on them = 2 points
Any books from our 105 books to read = 3 points
Book reviews
Our lovely Year 1 Chatterbooks group have been coming to the Library every Wednesday to listen to different Julia Donaldson stories and complete activities. This term they have been working on Zog. They enjoyed completing a book review in their last session and gave the book 5 stars.
Visitors to the library
Last week, some of our Year 4 children enjoyed individual visits to the library for extra reading time.
Spinebreakers
Last week, Prisha, Ronnie and Matei from Nursery returned the Story Scrapbook to the library. The nursery children produced some lovely artwork on their chosen theme of Commotion in the Ocean by Giles Andreae & David Wojtowycz for their display.
Nursery were the final recipients of the scrapbook for this school year. Well done to everyone for such wonderful displays and creativity for your chosen books!
105 Books reading achievements
Well done to Olivia who has read five books and earned her Bronze Certificate.
Well done to Alayah, Emmy and Darcie who have read 10 books and earned their Silver Certificates.
Well done to Maggie, Ava, Aiza and Anya who have read all 15 books, earning their Gold Certificates and completing their trackers.
Well done to all!

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.
