Book Week
Library News
Dear Families and Friends
Some great events are coming up early in Term 3.
On Tuesday the 7th of August St Patrick’s will be celebrating the “Children's Book Council Australia” Book Week.
The focus for book week this year is “Find your Treasure”.
On Tuesday the 7th of August we will hold our Annual Book Week Parade and Book Fair in conjunction with our “Grandparents Day”.
We will begin our day with a morning tea for our Grandparents and friends at 9:30.
At 10:30 we will commence our much-anticipated book week parade. We are asking all children to come dressed as a character from their most treasured book.
We are also asking Grandparents and friends to spend time in our classrooms or read a treasured story to our children.
Our Annual Scholastic Book Fair will also operate during Week 3. It will be set up in the Library. This is a great opportunity for all grandparents, parents, friends and students to purchase books at great prices. Also, many friends and families purchase a book or two to donate back to our school library. Please remember that the school receives 35% of all sales to purchase more books.
On this day we will again be holding a trivia afternoon for all the students. This year’s theme will be “Treasured Fairy Tales and Nursery Rhymes”.
