Book Fayre!

 

 

 The Book Fair returns to Holy Souls School, straight after half term.  As usual, you will have the opportunity to visit the fair every evening after school with your parents, for a week.  This is a great way to increase your reading skills and a super fundraiser for the school community.

Mrs Kielstra has set us a challenge, details of which have also been sent home.

Do you have any books at home that you no longer want and would like to donate to the school?  Consider which year group it would be appropriate for.
