BROMLEY'S newest primary school celebrated the opening of its library with a visit from a famous children's author.

Denis Bond, who has written more than 50 books for young people, held workshops at Bickley Primary School, Nightingale Lane, to discuss his work.

He also officially opened the library which was set up by a team of parents who stamped, covered and catalogued books.

Headteacher Rosamund Skinner said: "The parents worked very hard.

"This will be an excellent facility for us as we can also use the index and search engines for teaching IT."
