Five GoodGymers braved a wet and miserable Tuesday evening to assist Newbridge Primary School with the dismantling of their library.

Removing a library I hear you cry! How will the children broaden their minds? Never fear! We diligently moved the books from their neat little shelves, down a long corridor to their temporary piles on tiny tables (that had corresponding tiny chairs)! Using various trollies to aid us; our inner child may have come out as there was a sneaky little race with the empty trollies down the corridor by two of our members. I’d say it was a draw.

The overall idea of the move is for the school to make the corridor into their library space (as they don’t have a lot…space that is). The old library/computer room will be repurposed into their music room. Unfortunately their current one has a leaking ceiling!

Ever efficient, we managed to move all the books waiting for us in half an hour enabling us to skip out early, after offering our further assistance, of course.

Good work team!
