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

[BCS Library @bcslibrary_]

Harry Potter fans unite in a plan to make a video before the end of term. Good luck girls! #lovebooks #creativity

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

[BCS Library @bcslibrary_]

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

[BCS Library @bcslibrary_]

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

[BCS Library @bcslibrary_]

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 📚📚📚

[BCS Library @bcslibrary_]

Lovely to have children back in the Prep library after residentials. Lots of quiet reading going on - I think they are tired! #relaxwithabook
