Springhill International School Nursery & Primary Library Support Project, Nigeria

Before finding out about Books2Africa, Springhill International School had a very limited book collection for nursery and primary pupils. There were not enough age-appropriate books to support early literacy, independent reading, or classroom activities. As a result, our school needed additional books to strengthen our library, encourage a reading culture, and support effective teaching and learning for young children.

Kidron Montessori Library, Nigeria

Our library was limited due to the cost of books; we had few books in our library, and the children could not get books or read the way they wanted since books are important in keeping the students busy. Hence our need for more books so that these children could haver access to more resourceful materials that will keep them engaged in a more reading environment.

After dispatch, our standard delivery (Royal Mail First Class) typically arrives the next day in the UK (but can take up to 7 days), in 6 days to the EU and 10 days worldwide. It is important to note that delivery times are out of our control, as we do not deliver the goods ourselves.

If the error is ours, we will reprint free of charge. If the error is yours, we will reprint for 25% of the original amount. If we have sent you the wrong size garment, we will absolutely remake it for you in the right size when you return it. 

The guidance measurements given next to the shirts are supposed to represent what size person they fit. They are not the actual measurements of the garment itself, which naturally need to be larger than the person they are designed to fit.

Firstly, please ignore the washing instructions in the garment itself. These are for blank garments and not printed ones.

Wash your shirts at 40 degrees or less. Iron on reverse (cool). Do not tumble dry.

Whilst Royal Mail normally deliver all first class post within 1-2 working days, they can on occasion take longer. In the unlikely event that your goods do not arrive, allow 7 days before calling us. We cannot authorise any remakes before this time has passed as Royal Mail have been known to deliver within this time.
