The Great Bennies Book Swap 18-19 September
The Great Bennies Book Swap 18-19 September
Calling all students and staff to donate any pre-loved books from home, and swap for some ‘new’ preloved books!
How does it work?
Donate any preloved books to the Library and in exchange you will be given Bennies Book Bucks.
1 book = 1 Bennies Book Buck
5 books = 5 Bennies Book Bucks
10 books = 10 Bennies Book Bucks.
Treat the bucks like real currency as if lost, they are lost forever.
On your Swap Day, come to the Library, peruse the pre-loved collection, choosing some great reads for yourself. If you have 1 Buck, then you could get 1 book. If you have 5 Bucks, then you could get 5 books etc.
Let’s all be good stewards in a fun and caring way. If you cannot use all your bucks, give to a friend and they may find something they like.
Swap Day for Students is on Wednesday 18 September at lunchtime.
Swap Day for Staff is on Thursday 19 September at lunchtime.
Guidelines for pre-loved books:
Books must be in good condition – no tears, marks, or damage.
Suitable books for ages 12 to Adult.
Maximum 10 books per person.
Any books at the end that are not swapped will be donated to charity.
