Book Swap Magic

We’re thrilled to share our recent Book Swap event at St. James’s Primary School was a truly delightful success!

Pupils came together to celebrate their love of reading by bringing in a well-loved book from home and swapping it for a new one. The excitement was contagious as pupils browsed the wide selection of books, carefully choosing a fresh adventure to take home.

The sunny weather added a special touch, allowing us to spread out blankets across the playground and create a relaxed, joyful atmosphere. Children made the most of it by building book dens with their friends — cosy reading nooks where they could dive into their new stories together.

It was heart-warming to see so many pupils engaged, sharing, and discovering books with enthusiasm. Events like these remind us just how powerful and fun reading can be.

We hope all the children enjoyed the experience as much as we did, and we’re excited to announce that the Book Swap will return next year as a regular event on the school calendar.

A big thank you to everyone who contributed and helped make this event so special — here’s to many more shared stories and swapped books!
