School governors, staff, parents and pupils were invited to the official opening of a new library.
The Spinney at Kenilworth School in Borehamwood was opened on March 17 by Borehamwood Town Mayor Richard Butler who cut the ribbon with author Jonny Zucker.
Mr Zucker gave a talk to the school and guests about the importance of libraries and reading.
The choir sang, the Jolly Postman delivered book recommendations to every child in the school and the Hungry Caterpillar shared some cake with pupils and guests.
Head teacher Samantha Jayasuriya said: “We are determined at Kenilworth to keep our library open and thriving helping our children develop a love of lifelong reading.
“Libraries are amazing community spaces and Borehamwood is very lucky to have a beautiful and well stocked town library.
“Over the next two weeks, make a visit to the town centre library and lose yourself in a book. You never know where it might take you.”
