Scholastic Book Fair Coming Soon!

Dear students, parents, and staff,

We are delighted to announce that the much-anticipated Scholastic Book Fair will be taking place in our school library from Tuesday 3rd until Monday the 9th of December! This is an exciting opportunity for students, staff and parents to explore a wide variety of books in support of your love for reading. 

Every book and item of stationery you purchase at the Scholastic Book Fair plays a vital role in raising funds for our school. The more we sell, the more resources we invest in acquiring additional books for our school library.

Last year we raised £76.96 for the library. This year we hope to raise even more! In fact, if we sell more than £400 worth of books and stationery we can claim back 40% of the sales in new stock - that is incredible!

Event Details:

  • Date: 3rd - 9th December
  • Location: School Library/D23
  • 11-4pm every day! (except for Friday the 6th December as school is closed for Inset Day)

How to Participate:

On-site Browsing: Students and staff are welcome to visit the library during the Book Fair week to explore the available books in person. You can then pay using the QR code on your mobile phone.

Or students can create a Student Wishlist (paper forms are kept in the library). Parents can then access the wishlist and purchase online accordingly. 

Parents are able to make payments using the QR code or on the Scholastic website at bookfairs.scholastic.co.uk/pay

 

*Please remember when making payments to select the correct school in the dropdown menu! It’s King’s Academy Prospect. Or you can type in the school postcode: RG30 4EX.

*If your child has filled in a Wish List and parents are making a payment from home, they will need to return the Wish List to school along with confirmation of payment. Then, simply take their chosen books from the Book Fair cases.

*The preferred payment method is to pay online, but we will accept cash. Please don’t send in your child with large amounts of money, as we cannot accept liability for any loss.

  • Online Shopping:
    • Parents, you can conveniently browse and purchase books online through the Scholastic website. Simply visit Teen Titles to explore the available collection. Payment can be made securely on the website, then students can collect their book/books from the library.
  • Vouchers: For those who prefer to use vouchers, they can be purchased through the Scholastic website. Please note that vouchers must be used for the full amount and cannot provide change (see full terms and conditions on the website). www.bookfairs.scholastic.co.uk/gift-vouchers

All online payments must be completed before the fair finishes on the 9th as the cases are being collected on the 10th.

  • We encourage everyone to take advantage of this wonderful event to promote literacy and the joy of reading. By participating, you not only support our school but also foster a love for books in our students.

Thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing you at the Scholastic Book Fair!

Warm regards,
