You can also borrow books from the library van and the next visit to the village is the 26th July at 11am.  The library van comes every fortnight to the village. Dates are on the calendar. 

   

  Our school challenge is to read 100 books collectively.

  Life can take a turn at any point and put you on a different path. A huge thank you to Ben Smith who visited school today to share what he did on his 401 challenge and a little bit about his next venture. 
   

  Ben has raised a huge amount of money for anti-bullying charities in response to experiencing bullying at school as a young person.
