Valerie presents books to Rivers Primary School Library

As Chair of the APPG on Publishing and in the week of World Book Day, I was able to present some books to Rivers Primary on my visit on 28 February 2025. 

The School have invested in a great space for their Library and consulted the children who wanted a campfire so in the centre there is a pretend firepit with comfy stools to sit around it. 

I was pleased to add to the collection.

The motto above the Library says it all: “Reading is dreaming with your eyes open”.
