Book Fair 2020

10 March 2020 | School News

The Scholastic Book Fair is in the Learning Resource Centre (LRC) all week and will be open for students to browse/buy books and stationery at break and lunch time (last chance to buy is Friday 13th March).

There is a huge selection of books, from amazing classics and great value packs, to exciting brand new releases and TV show tie-ins! More great news – Miss Grainger can currently offer £1 discount off the displayed price of any book/book set (does not include stationery/posters)!

Payments can be made by cash in the LRC (your child will receive a receipt), by credit/debit card via phone payment (your child then collects their items from the LRC the next day), or by credit/debit card to purchase printable gift vouchers online (then used to pay in the LRC).

Instructions for phone payments:

(Please note NO CHANGE CAN BE GIVEN FOR PHONE PAYMENT CREDIT)

  • Ask your child to collect a phone payment slip from the LRC. This has details of the number to call.
  • When you phone, you will be asked for your card details, the school I.D. number (which will be written on the payment slip), and the amount you wish to pay (if your child has requested a specific item the price will be written on the payment slip).
  • You will be given a transaction number – please write this (and the amount paid) on the payment slip.
  • Get your child to return the payment slip to the LRC the next day, and they can then collect their items up to the value paid.
