LIBRARY NOTICES & SUMMER RETURNS
Published: Mon 30 Jun 2014

All pupil reservation and overdue notices are now sent to pupil edubuzz e-mail accounts. Pupils should regularly check their accounts if they have requested any library items and also to ensure they haven't gone overdue on items. If a pupil would prefer to get notices to a home e-mail account please see Mr Plain in the library where you can update your record. During the summer if you are tidying your room or clearing your brother/sister's room as they prepare to leave for university, please return any library books you find to the nearest branch library. The branch library will send them back to school for you.
