Free Books for Schools

in Freebies (no spend required)
Hi, I have come across these two schemes that are offering free books for schools. If you don't work in a school but have children maybe you could pass this on. At my school no one had heard about and it seems a shame to miss out.

The first is offerring a free book for every Year 7 in the autumn term. They get to choose one out of twelve.

The second one is to encourage boys into books and you get to select 20 free books. There are some really good choices.

Hope this is of use to someone.

    Great idea! It does say that you have to register by 29th June, though, so don't know if you can still apply?:confused:

    I think the 29th June was to get a free set of 12 books for the school, I'm pretty sure you can still register.
