Book shopping at Norfolk Children's Book Centre

On Friday 19th January, Mr Biddle and Mr Siddles took five children from Year 5 and 6 to Norfolk Children's Book Centre. We were very excited because we'd been given £500 to spend on books for our school library from the Siobhan Dowd Trust.

When we first arrived, we spent ten minutes looking around the shop. We decided that we needed a balanced mixture of fiction, non-fiction, graphic novels and poetry, so we split up into small groups and started to make a list of what we wanted. After an hour of discussion, we eventually came up with three large piles, which we then needed to narrow down. We eventually managed to do this and returned to school with two fantastic boxes full of new books for everyone to share.

We'd like to say a huge thank you to the Siobhan Dowd Trust for their very generous donation! It will certainly make a massive difference to our school library.
