Book Appeal Success

High Blantyre Primary School have been successful in their recent appeal for more books for the school.

In fact, a whopping donation of £1,500 worth of new books for their library has been made following the parent council’s request to the council’s community wish list scheme for support.

Browns Books answered the plea and donated £1500 worth of books for the school library.

Chairperson of High Blantyre’s parent council, Dr Susan Linder-Kelly, said: “We are currently working our way through The Reading Schools Award programme and have a huge whole school and community focus on reading.

“This grant has provided us with a large selection of much needed non-fiction books for our new school library.

“We have also been given access to our very own online platform, where children, parents/carers and the wider community can borrow eBooks electronically from their homes.

“This is a great opportunity to provide access to free books outwith the school environment, which we would not have been able to do without the resources Browns Books has gifted our school. Thank you for granting our Community Wish.”
