...is currently reading...

As part of the World Book Day celebrations, staff at Kimbolton School displayed details of the book they are currently reading. Posters appeared on classroom doors, in the Health Centre, outside the Headmaster's office...in fact all over the place! A simple idea that sparked a lot of interest and book-related discussion.

Happy World Book Day

'Meet, talk, give' is the theme for this year's World Book Day initiative to raise money for BookAid International.
Vanbrugh Library is running the annual booksale to support this worthy cause. Drop in to grab a bargain and whilst you're here have a go at the quiz - chocolates for all entries and a chance to win a book token.
And how many different books are currently being read by school staff? Check out the posters outside classrooms - again prizes for the nearest guess.
