Author Guy Bass Officially Opens the Refurbished Library - September 2018

We all had a wonderful day when Guy Bass, award-winning author of such great books as ‘Stitch Head’ came to open our school library!

It is with great thanks to our fantastic PTA, who contributed £13,000 towards the renovation, that the library was able to go ahead. The children love it and it has helped focus reading as a such an important part of our school.

Guy stayed all day and the children had a hilarious time listening to his stories, tales about his life and why reading is so important to him.  A truly inspirational day!

Your Local Library

Our nearest public library can be found in Farnborough Town Centre (Pinehurst, Farnborough GU14 7JZ) and are open most days until 5pm. 

We like to take the children there for a visit, usually in Year 3, to have a look at what they provide, talk about memberships, clubs and reading challenges that they run in the holidays.
