Today we have been delighted to welcome Jo Cotterill to BCS to speak to Prep about her experiences as an author. She has signed copies of her new book "The Starlight Stables Gang" for lots of excited pupils this afternoon- thank you so much, Jo! #authorvisit#jocotterill
On Monday 27 March, we will be excited to welcome author Matt Dickinson to the Blue Coat Library, to inspire us with stories and to sign pupils' books! Prep children should bring their Matt Dickinson books to be signed on the day π #authorvisit#bcscommunity
Some intense reading and book browsing going on as 2M enjoy their last library lesson of Pre-Prep. Looking forward to seeing more of these keen readers @bcslibrary_ in September!
Great leadership from Y6 #pupillibrarians Vuyi & Jaskiran guiding Y3&4 pupils to act out Charlie & the Chocolate Factory in the library today - they absolutely loved it! #fun#noisy
We now have a whole production line going! Prep pupils are being challenged to not judge a book by its cover between now & the end of term #lovelibraries#volunteers

Not book related but the roses outside Pre-Prep are glorious in the sunshine today!! Pupils & staff are so lucky to work amongst such beauty @bcsbirmingham
Still adding new books to Prep & Pre-Prep libraries & these two beauties by @knchimbiri stood out for their stunning illustration & vital content @joelle_avelino#reading
Book Review(er) of the Week Siyona wrote an impressive eleven reviews over half-term earning 22 House Points for St Monica's House. Her review of @lemonysnicket's The Bad Beginning raised a chuckle! #lovereading
Prepping for Prep! After the excitement of sorting this morning 2EW were very happy to visit the Prep Library for the first time this afternoon #lovereading#growingup
Lots & lots of new books added to the Prep Library this morning! These are just some of the books we bought with our @ScholasticUKTch Book Fair earnings - many more to add for Pre-Prep too #lovereading
Exciting! Just had seven massive & very heavy boxes of new books delivered thanks to everyone's support of our @ScholasticUKTch Book Fair. The pupils are going to love helping me add them to the library after half-term πππ
