Whether it's your birthday or an occasion to celebrate something, may we offer you our #wordoftheweek.😊 It comes from the verb felicitate, which means 'congratulate' and has a Latin root, felicitas which means 'happiness'. Have a great week! #words
Thank you for coming @JuniorGrammar - always a pleasure to host the archive for some #handsonhistory !

In Wellbeing Week, the importance of reading by the late Dr Michael Mosley in his book, Just one thing. It can improve your stress levels, help with depression, strengthen your social skills and it could even help you live longer! #readingforpleasure #Wellbeing #bradfordgrammar
Our #wordoftheweek is lore, meaning a body of knowledge or tradition, originally passed on through word of mouth, later taking on a written form. Have a great week! #words
It's going to be #cold this week, so we've chosen an appropriate #poemoftheweek by #ShirleyHughes . Her distinctive illustrations and classic books are beloved by children across the world. Remember to keep warm like this character here! ❄️🧣#poetry #RfP #loveyourlibrary

Thank you to Mrs Jones and Mrs Reynolds who have curated this year's #Remembrance book display for the @bgs_library. #armistice #LestWeForget #BooksWorthReading
To mark #RemembranceDay2024 , our #poemoftheweek is by Roland Leighton - killed in 1915 before any of his #poems could be published. Plug Street Wood is an #Anglicisation of #Ploegsteert Wood, a quiet sector of the #WesternFront during #WWI . Take time to #reflect on these words.
Congratulations to the first winner of our monthly book voucher prize draw for pupils who have read and reviewed ten books to complete their library loyalty cards! 🙌 Want to be next? Pick up your card from the @bgs_library. #reading #books #libraries #takepart #winner #bgsfamily
There are lots of new #displays in the @BradfordGrammar #library ! First up, #LifeStories - find out about the face behind the #fame and the real lives of those in the public eye in our #biographies display. Even more on the #readinglist ! 📚📖 #memoirs #RfP #loveyourlibrary
As tomorrow is #bonfirenight , our #poemoftheweek is 'Autumn Fires' by Robert Louis Stevenson. It pays homage to the beauty of #autumn, the time of year that brings bonfires and #fireworks ! Have a lovely week. 🎇🎆🍂 #poetry #RfP #language #loveyourlibrary
Welcome back, we hope you had a great half term break! Our first #wordoftheweek come from the Latin, crepusculum, meaning twilight. Crepuscular can also be used to describe animals, insects and plants that are active at dusk and dawn. #welcomeback #words
Today's Book Club discussion ranged from sinister fairy tales to gothic chillers. Mrs Park brought in her copy of Usborne's World of the Unknown: Ghosts, a cult classic for those of a certain vintage! Grab a spooky read before the half term begins... 🎃👻💀
This week's #wordoftheweek dates back to the ancient Celtic festival, Samhain, when the souls of the dead returned home. From the 8th century, Christians observed All Saints Day on 1st Nov, borrowing some Samhain traditions, the 31st Oct becoming All Hallows Eve or Halloween. 🎃
