SCHOOL BOOK FAIRS:

We know there is never enough time in a teacher’s busy day so we do the planning to make these events run smoothly for you.
Simply phone to arrange a booking. All you need to provide is a space and some tables. We will provide the staff. Books from various publishers will be available for pupils and parents to purchase on the day.
In return you will receive commission of 10% of sales value in books for your school.

WORLD BOOK DAY:

Our book fairs are an ideal opportunity for pupils to spend their “World Book Day” voucher on the special titles or towards other books.

Your school will benefit with commission at the same time.

Our book fairs are often adapted for Parent’s Evenings, Open Days, fundraising events, Book Week or whatever your school requires.

Text books and books for guided reading can be supplied.

Discounts are available.

Teachers are welcome to visit our premises in Orpington to choose books or look at catalogues. Just call to make an appointment.
