Trains in the Library?

Quote from Campbell Weir of Room 7

"This library is awesome! Better than the last." And we think that is awesome Campbell.

"There is a new addition to the library thanks to Paper Plus...A Thomas the Tank Engine stand with books and trains. How great is that, we feel very lucky and we may be the only school library that has such a great feature". Mrs Chin

The Fanselow family generously donated these books, stock  from their book store The Reading Bug (sadly no longer operating). Thanks Fleur for your help in classification." Mrs Chin
