As I've been speaking with parents, it's come to my attention that many of you haven't had the chance to see our school library. Unfortunately, the current space lacks the inviting atmosphere for browsing books and enjoying a good read. While we're actively pursuing grant applications for initiatives like love4books and the Foyle Foundation, we still need to raise £5,000 to bring the project to life. With your support, we can make our dream of a library a reality. Please reach out to your friend and work and contribute whatever you can to help us achieve this goal. Together, we can create a space where every student can explore the joys of reading.
You can donate any amount just click here. Here is an idea of what we want to deliver.
Thank you and happy holidays.
Cristina Tosta
Yardley PTA Chair.
