Children at the Academy are aged 4 to 11 and a selection of books have been provided for all ages.

Lisa Davies the headmistress, said, "By donating money to our school to refurbish the school library, Harpenden Trust has made a dream come true. Our children at Harpenden Academy are so lucky to have this amazing space which will enhance not only their love of reading but also enrich their learning. Thank you."
