Remember the school library is open every Wednesday after school for children to come and change their library book again.  We also have a parent book swap scheme for parents to use.  Any younger siblings who come to this session are also welcome to borrow books.  The after school library session is the only time children are allowed to borrow our DVD and CD books!
