Boost for school libraries

Schools are being helped to increase their reading stock in a bid to get more children reading non-fiction following a survey which showed many shy away from these types of books.
Nestlé Box Tops for Books aims to provide schools with new educational books, with a little help from the local community. For the last five years, Nestlé Cereals have been helping schools to raise cash by collecting Box Tops for Education tokens.

While still offering schools the option of redeeming tokens for cash, this year Nestlé Cereals have teamed up with high quality educational publishers DK to provide schools with the chance to collect as many new educational books as they can from the eminent school book publisher.
Some schools are already collecting tokens available on special packs of Nestlé breakfast cereals ¬ including Shreddies and Cheerios. They would be grateful to receive any tokens collected by the local community and sent to them.

To find out if your local school is collecting Box Tops tokens, or for more information, log on to www.boxtops4books.co.uk.
