Buy or Borrow a Book this Summer!

The English Department would like to know what you read this Summer, so we have set you the following challenge:

 

  1. Go to either a bookshop or a library wherever you are.
  2. Take a photograph of you holding the book you are reading outside the shop or the library.
  3. Email your picture to buyorborrowabook@shrewsbury.in.th  before the start of term.
  4. Include your name and the place you took the photograph.

We have 65 different magazines in the library , because these are a really important way to support students’ learning and other interests.  Here are some of the highlights from the magazines in May 2014.
