Book Week Winners 2020
The following books were announced last week as the 2020 Book Week Winners. We have many of the winning books and nominated titles available in the Library. Most are available to be borrowed now!
Book Week 2020
Book Week celebrations are planned for next week. Getting dressed up can be lots of fun. It can also be pretty daunting when you feel like you are lacking in the ‘crafty’ department. Every costume is special to the child who proudly wears it on the day. Remember – Book Week is about the books and encouraging a lifelong LOVE of reading. Focus on choosing a great book and do what you can (from a mum and librarian who bought costumes from Kmart).
Theme: Curious Creatures, Wild Minds…
Dress Up Day: 2nd November 2020
Readers Cup: 2nd November 2020
(Winning Teams will be announced at Assembly on November 5th)
