There has been a revolution going on in our library. During the pandemic, our children had only 50 books for them all to read: these had to be passed around carefully! Now we have a library of 1,600 books, some kindles and some laptops to borrow and the old lending spreadsheet was an inadequate way to continue! Millfield School has supported our school over the last three years in many critically important ways, and their recent donation was again from their librarians selling ice creams in the summer months, with profits going to our library. So, two of our alumni, Feshan and Bibesh, and two Class 9 boys Prabesh and Aayush, have been converting our library to a purpose-made software system which has all the normal library functions. Books are recorded with authors and titles which generates a QR code for borrowing/lending records. We shall now build some extra shelves and buy new books with the fantastic donation from Millfield School. Thank you Millfield School for remembering us and thank you also to the task force four boys for your great work.
