Story
Our children go to a new state bilingual primary school which has struggled to obtain the extra funding needed to set up a library.
We all know from our own childhood experience the benefits of reading and the importance of access to a well-resourced library. So a group of 25 parents & teachers from the school have taken it upon themselves to raise funds to establish a library so that all the children at the bilingual school can enjoy those same benefits. This is our 4th fundraising effort and we are delighted to say that our library is nearly there, we need one final effort to help us across the line.
The money raised will go directly to the library to purchase books, seating, furnishing and library management software. The children have already started to use the library and it has been very popular despite it being a work in progress.
Please help us achieve our goal of creating a library for the children in our school. Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
Thank you for taking the time to read our page.

6 years agoThank you to everyone who kindly supported our 10km run for books. We are thrilled to say that you helped us raise the total amount needed for the library! Without your help there would be no library at our school, this means a lot to the children. Now that the Just Giving page has ended, the money raised will be used in the new year to purchase more books and seating for The Fulham Bilingual library.
