JK Rowling to the rescue at Antiville

The Larne Times reports that J.K.Rowling has yet again done a heroic deed.

Quote:

The parent association have recruited the best selling author in their campaign to save the school from possible closure.
When she was asked to donate an item to be sold at an auction next month, the millionaire writer had no hesitation in signing hardback copies of each of her Harry Potter novels, including a rare first edition.

Quote:

The complete set of books comes complete with a letter of authenticity from Ms. Rowling.

Quote:

"The auction is to raise funds to help meet the educational needs of the children and also to highlight the cause of Antiville Primary", Samantha said.

Quote:

"The board is to make up its mind about the future of the school next month and we believe that it is important for the future of the estate that the school be retained", they said in a joint statement.
"The special education unit has such a high reputation that parents from as far away as Glengormley volunteer to send their children to it. The special unit is a facility not just for Antiville, but for the greater Larne area.
"The school is an important community resource", the DUP men added.
"It is a centre not just for children, but also for adult education.
"At a time when the estate is undergoing difficult change the loss of the school would be very wrong.
"We trust that the board will do more give the school a sat of execution, but go further and give assurance that it will remain so that parents can have confidence in sending their children to it", they stated.

Aww, JK's so nice. Lucky them!

I got that paper this week and saw the article. I was going to post it but i couldnt get on the computer. I have the article from the Larne times paper if you would like me to post it to you.

Hey that's great! It's not like she's handing money out, she's encouraging reading and donating at the same time! Now if only all rich celebrities would think that way...

this is so nice of JK, and all those autographed books should raise a lot of money! hope the school wont be closed, would make JK happy if it stayed open..

Lovely JK is at it again! Hope the auction goes well.

That is awesome that she took no hesitation at donating something. Way to go JK!

wow thats nice of JK to do something for that school.

Go Jk! Always helping!!!!

As i was saying I live in the town so I got the paper on wednesday cause I get it every week. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...res/img001.jpg
I have decided to post the article if any one whats to see the article that was in the actual paper. Oh my goodness i think i might be in that paper next week because of my stupid schools prizegiving. Nooooooo!

Yeah!!! GOOOOOO JK!!!!

Thats very nice of her, but she could probably afford to buy the school, thus saving it from closure for good. Then again she must get thousands of begging letters, lots of them from equally worthwhile causes.

that's great!!! she always cares bout others and always willing to help out when sum 1 is in need and i think that's y people like her so much (aside 4m her perfect books!!!)

And that is why we all love Jo.

Wow, it's a wonder Moy Regional never thought of that... I live about 40 miles from Larne and a load of state schools (including the one down the road from my house) round here are getting closed down cos they only have like 30 kids in them. Nearly everyone goes to the private schools. S'a terrible pity. I can't get a lift to Larne. :(

Siriously, she is a truely wonderful person. Not that is was a big deal for her, but it is still rather awesome that she never ceases to help out her fans.

ah, go jo! that's why we all love her! always willing to help ... i think she's ab****ely wonderful.

Aah, another reason why we worship and admire the lovely JK, she is just well lovely! :bow:

awww yay! I'm glad that Jo casts such a nice light. Showing off that even if she's richer than the Queen that she remembers what got her there and gives back

:superman: <- Jo to the rescue

J.k. Rowling Is So Nice!!

Go Jo Go :superman: > :stab: > :chrleadr:

That was really nice of her but I do feel because of this generous act she might be taken for granted, with schools all over the world probably writing letters,
her poor post man! :-(

That Was Really Nice Of JK!! Shes The best!

JK rocks!!!
she is going to heaven!!!!

i want her as my best friend!! she is so nice , to everyone!!!
