Buckingham Primary School visit


On Thursday we were delighted to welcome to the library Mrs Caroline Boyle and some Year 6 students from nearby Buckingham Primary School. Mrs Boyle had kindly presented us with a voucher to purchase some books for the library. The books were chosen by Year 7 students who had attended Buckingham and Mrs Boyle came to formally present them. The Buckingham students then had a tour of the library guided by Year 7.
