We already have a number of reading interventions and initiatives in place and, over the next few years, we want to further develop Greensward’s reading culture. That is why we have a library fund as we really want to ensure that our library is an exciting, modern and enticing place for students to spend time relaxing, learning and encountering amazing ideas. In the light of challenges with funding, we are hoping that some of you may be able to spare some money to help us fund a substantial restock of our library. Even £1 from half of our parents would enable us to purchase a new set of texts, specifically for students with literacy challenges. If you are able to donate, please do so via ParentPay - where you will see a link to the library fund. All donations are greatly appreciated.
We have a wish list of books which can be purchased from Amazon or donated second hand. We are always very grateful to receive any new and nearly-new books which you may be willing to donate. Please simply drop to reception any books which we may suitably use in the library, classroom book boxes or give to students who do not have ready access to books at home.
