Primary School Library: A very furry Christmas

PAWs Bangkok visit the Library and receive the donation from the sale of used books. There is still lots going on in the Library this week and the winning entries from the poster competition are now on display. Please remember that the Library closes at 3.00 p.m.on Thursday 13 December and will not reopen until January.

PAWS Bangkok Visit the Library

We were delighted to welcome the famous ‘Train Kitty’, who brought Tung Ngern plus Doctors Puk and Tuktan along, to visit us in the Library to receive our donation from the Used Books Sale. The total donation made was 7,220 Baht and the Foundation Stage, KS1 and KS2 children really enjoyed meeting them all and handing over their sparkly envelopes of cash.

Don’t forget that you can continue to support the great work PAWS does all year round. Some ideas are:

• Maybe a class can ‘adopt’ a cat who needs long-term care at the centre

• Cats and kittens are always available for adoption at the centre - you can arrange a visit

• Follow PAWS on Facebook to keep up with news www.facebook.com/pawsbangkok

• Make a donation

• Visit their stall at The Farmers Market, Gateway, Ekkamai every 1st and 3rd weekend of the month

Thank you again for your kind support of our Library projects.

Library Closure - 13th/14th December

Please don’t forget that the Primary School Library will close early at 3.00 p.m. on Thursday 13 December and will NOT be open on the following last day of term, Friday 14 December, due to the annual Merit Making ceremony.
