The Big Book Bank

The Big Book Bank is an initiative run by Waterstone's.  If you bring in a book from home that you have read and enjoyed, we will add it to the school's Big Book Bank.  You will be given a sticker on which to write a short review of the book and this will be put inside the front cover of the book.  In return, you will get a voucher from Waterstone's for a free book.  They've got a selection of 12 titles for you to choose from- you're sure to find something that will appeal.

But, that's not all!  Not to be outdone by Waterstone's, Cedars School of Excellence will give you a brick on the wall if you contribute a book to the Big Book Bank- you can't say we're not good to you!  

This offer is open to all pupils in P.5/6 to S.2.  Just make sure you check with your parents before donating a book.  If you don't want to part from the book for good, then you can just lend it to the library until Christmas and that still gives people a chance to read it.

Oliver Bath was the first pupil to hand in a book: the delightfully named 'Horrid Henry's Nits'!  Well done and thank you, Oliver!

Looking forward to your donations.
