✨Library Transformation✨
This school library is ready for children after a @hounslowsls.bsky.social visit. We weeded, organised and labelled books, transforming the library! 📚

As Black History Month continues, we know many of our subscribing primary schools will be learning about and celebrating influential figures using these fantastic biographies! 📚

During the last few weeks, the @hounslowsls.bsky.social team have been weeding, sorting and labelling hundreds of books for a newly subscribing school! 📚 The school has decided to move their library from a busy corridor to a cosy reading room. 🥳 #librarylove #readingforpleasure #books

*Young, Gifted and Black Too* celebrates 52 inspirational Black figures from around the world. It's a powerful read for young minds and this Black History Month, many of our schools are sparking important conversations with this essential book. #BlackHistoryMonth #books #library

✨NEW BOOKS✨ We are so excited to add these books (and many more) to our shelves, ready for our future Project Loan boxes! 📚
