LIBRARY NEWS:

Author visit: Chris d'Lacey:
Chris d'Lacey's visit to speak to year 7 was a great success. He enthused the pupils about reading by teasing them with stories. Some extra-lucky pupils were involved in a question and answer session with him as well as hearing him talk in their English lessons. Year 7 represented St Peter's very well in their attitude to Chris as a visitor. The year 13 catering team provided a wonderful lunch for the day.

Author visit: Pauline Fisk:
We are delighted that Pauline Fisk will be visiting the school on Wednesday 10 November and speaking to year 7 RIMS and the whole of year 9 in their English lessons. She is promoting her new book 'In the Trees'.

Booked Up:
The free books for year 7 arrived and have been given out. Ask your son/daughter about their choice. Is there a year 7 out there who can read all 12?!

Libraries at break and lunch:
As the weather gets wetter and colder, it is tempting for students to see the Libraries as a warm place to go. They are reminded that they are for reading and independent study. If pupils are involved in these activities, they are most welcome at break and lunch. If they just want a warm place to talk and eat, the Hall or, for sixth-form, the common room are available. Please support the continued facility of the Libraries as places of study. Many thanks for your support.
