Keep Reading in Term 4
As we head into the final term of the school year, it's more important than ever to encourage students to keep reading. Research consistently shows that reading for pleasure boosts academic achievement, emotional wellbeing, and lifelong learning. Our library is full of amazing tales of adventure just waiting to be discovered. Let's remind students to keep turning those pages and exploring new worlds!

Friday November 14th (Week 6) – last day for student borrowing.
Friday November 21st (Week 7) - last day for student returns.

Overdue notices will be sent via email, so please keep an eye on your junk folders. If you need additional time to locate books, please email Danielle.Leathaet@twb.catholic.edu.au so I can adjust records accordingly. If you think your child may have returned book/s please email so we can check the shelves here in the library, sometimes things don’t scan correctly.
