School Library

You will be excited to hear that thanks to all the efforts from staff, parents, carers and pupils our fantastic newly renovated Library is now open and is proving very popular at lunch-time! Pupils are also visiting the Library regularly with their class teachers and are starting to take books out now that the stock taking process for fiction books is finished.

We are also delighted to announce that the school’s interactive on-line reading community READING CLOUD is now up and running. All pupils have received personal log-in details and can click on this link to the Reading Cloud:

Your children will show you how they can:

• Search for and reserve books in the Library
• Create an online identity (Avitar)
• Write an online book review
• Recommend books to their friends and socialise with their friends at Grasmere School on Reading Cloud (this is monitored by Grasmere staff)
• Write their own Blog
• Have access to Meet the Author videos
• Use the “What’s Next..?” search engine to find new authors based on authors they already know and enjoy
• Find out what the most popular books are at the moment
• Make their own onhome library and share books with friends at school
