Louise from St Georges Books visited Kildare College with a selection of new novels.
Our Resource Centre Student Volunteers were invited to attend this meeting.
Each Student selected two books of their choice, to have in the our Resource Centre. It was a great way for our students to have a say and to choose the books that they like to read.
Our Resource Centre Student Volunteers have the opportunity to read the books first and can take them home for Holiday reading. The new books will be available for borrowing in Term 3.
Some comments from students who attended;
“I liked how we were able to pick out two brand new books for the school. I loved how we had the lucky door prize where the winner won a brand new book.” Samsieh, Year 7
“One thing that I enjoyed was looking at what types of books that could be bought. I also enjoyed choosing cool books with my friends.” Charlotte, Year 7
Tori, winner of the lucky door prize, had the opportunity to pick out a new book to keep.
“I liked that the student volunteers had the opportunity to pick two books that they liked and that they could be the first ones to borrow them.” Tori, Year 7
