BOOK lovers have been able to pick up their favourite new titles while helping to provide for their school.

Students at Burnt Mill Academy, in Harlow, earned more than £200 in free books for their school library by shopping at the Scholastic book fair.

Librarian Regina Cashman said: “It’s a wonderful opportunity for students to be able to browse new books and to buy their own copies of books they want to read, while helping to raise rewards for the school to purchase more books for the library.”
