Our School Library
Each year to celebrate World Book Day on the 1st of March Ms. Mc Guinness organises the annual Book fair. This is held for a week in the school library. With the help and assistance of the parents committee the fair is open each morning and afternoon where children and parents are invited to browse and purchase a selection of popular and classic much loved and educational books. This year over 1000Euro on commission was raised through the book fair. This money will be spent wisely on purchasing books for our school throughout the year. Thanks to all those who helped and bought at the fair.
During this week the teachers are also encouraged to undertake a selection of reading activities with the children to promote reading for pleasure. This can include DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) time, Reading buddies, dressing up as book characters, writing book reviews etc. It is an enjoyable and worthwhile week in the school year.
