Calling all book lovers!
BOOK SALE
The Royal Arms Book Group has sponsored the Reading Challenge at Llangrove School since March this year. Children read 5 books, score them out of 5 and then complete a task related to the reading they have done. A book token prize is given for each completed challenge. Parents designed fabulous leaflets, certificates and posters to be used by staff and children during the challenge.
A book sale to raise more funds took place at The Royal Arms, Llangrove over the bank holiday. There are still some books left though, if you missed it!
The Royal Arms Book Group meets once a month on Tuesday at the pub. Contact 01989 770267 for more information. New members are very welcome.
