Arts and Crafts Club


After school on Wednesdays means only 1 thing in the PLLC - Arts and Crafts Club!


Club members have been finishing off a project that involved them researching an artist and creating a piece of work based on that artist's style. We'll be displaying the finished pieces soon - so keep your eyes peeled.



Next up club members will be helping to transform the PLLC into a wild west saloon for USA Day on the last day of term. They've come up with some fab ideas (including making 'Wanted' posters, cow hides and 3D cacti!). Can't wait to get cracking on with that.

PLLC Reward trip

We'd be trying to think of a cool way to reward our star PLLC library users for a while and then it came to us...why not take them on a trip to Seven Stories Centre for Children's Books and the fab new library in Newcastle City Centre?


So off we went last Friday. What a fab day! At Seven Stories we had a great time talking about books that we enjoyed, trying on all sorts of different costumes and hats and the students even got to choose a book from the book shop!



We got an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour at Newcastle's brand new city library - as well as getting to see all of the public areas we even got treated to a sneaky peek around the staff areas that people don't normally see.
