New library shelves

"Here are Ben and Andrew busy assembling our new mobile shelves from Hydestor. With money that was generously donated by the Beckenham Neighbourhood Association we were able to purchase much needed shelving. They hold all our picture books and can easily be moved around the library when extra floor space is needed. We absolutely love them. Thanks Beckenham Neighbourhood Association and Hydestor." Mrs Chin

Library cat 2012

"This is Smokey, the lovely cat that would visit our old library. He is still around but never visits the new library in Room 10. Do you think other school libraries have a cat? "Mrs Chin

Library visitor...meeeoooww

"Yoda must have been feeling cold and decided the rather warm library was the place to be today. After sussing out a variety of nooks and crannies he decided on the computer to rest. After 30 minutes my chair was the spot, perhaps because it was directly under the heat pump. He spent several hours there and I had to get myself another chair." Mrs Chin
