Wow! Fantastic reading stats from the students in @colchilmlib. Well done to all 👏👏👏 @AccReader @INOTEnews @KWETB
The library was in a celebratory mood today as we rewarded a 1st Year English class with a well-deserved pizza party. The students broke our school's Accelerated Reader word count class record with an astonishing 96,000,000 words read during the year. @jcsplibraries @ccmwicklow
