The Power of a Well-Stocked and Inviting Library in Primary Schools: A Key to Reading Attainment and Enjoyment
A well-stocked and inviting library is one of the most valuable resources a primary school can offer and that’s exactly what we have at BSB Sanlitun. The role of libraries in education extends far beyond simply providing books; they serve as vibrant spaces that encourage exploration, creativity, and, most importantly, reading. For children in their formative years, having access to an engaging and well-curated library can significantly enhance their reading attainment and fuel their lifelong love for reading.

Our Year 4 students have been experimenting with creating their own phrases using Stravinsky’s melodic fragments. They were given four short building blocks to reflect on and discuss, before they worked in pairs to assemble the melodies using the same blocks.
