On Wednesday afternoon, after a suggestions from one of our fabulous House Captains, Year 6 paid a visit to Waterstones in Piccadilly for a book and a beverage. Excited whispers could be heard across the shop as they all browsed the many shelves the store had on offer, and they were all so eager to make the right choice over which book to buy!
Picking a book with friends is a magical experience, and the children did themselves proud and represented the school wonderfully. Millionaire hot chocolates were drunk, and many pages were frantically turned as time was spent enjoying the magic that book shopping can bring. A special mention and thank you to Sophia in Year 6 for the lovely idea and our parent volunteers who made this afternoon trip possible! Thank you also to Waterstones in Piccadilly for hosting us; we cannot wait for the next trip.
