Celebrating Difference
With last month being Pride month, we thought June was a perfect time to showcase some of our fantastic books in the Library that embrace and celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community. We have a wide variety of fiction books that include all different types of characters along with some interesting and informative non-fiction books relating to subjects such as a gender, the history of the community and how to celebrate being different.
Take a look at our display below, which features some fantastic artwork created by students in Diversity Club. The display was put together by two Year 10 students who recently completed their work experience in the Library.
The work experience students also worked on our 'Time for a Summer Read' display, which presents some books perfect for a summer holiday read! If you fancy a story about a summer romance, or about an exotic country, come and check out some of the books we have on our display. Now is the perfect time for students to start deciding what they want to read over the Summer holidays, so make sure you come down and find your Summer read! We have a Summer Reading Adventure activity page available for students to collect from the Library and complete over the Summer if they wish, which has a range of different reading inspired activities to complete. Mrs Jones (previously Miss Dodds) would love to hear all about students' Summer reading!
As the term draws to a close, please ensure that any overdue Library books are returned to the Library or are renewed with Mrs Jones ready for the extended holidays. The Library will be back open on the first day, Tuesday 5th September, ready to welcome new and returning students to the Library. Watch this space for a 'Read Around the World' adventure coming soon...
