Book Week - Tuesday

Award winning writer, Linda Newbery, addressed Bilton pupils on Tuesday. She graciously also stayed longer to sign copies of her books (which were very popular: our pupils gobbled up well over 100 of them).

This week has also seen Scholastic’s book fayre, with Mrs Morris having to add a third day due to popular demand. Bilton bookworms can’t get enough!
