End of Term Book Returns

We are very quickly approaching the end of the school term.  Students are reminded to return their overdue library books before the end of the term.  Students in years 4, 5, and 6 are welcome to borrow over the break.

Remember that students in years 4, 5, and 6 are also able to access ebooks and audio books using Sora.  Students will need their MIS username to access this resource and need to ensure they enter their school as Education Queensland.  Other online libraries, such as Moreton Bay Region Library accounts, can be linked through the app to provide access to a larger number of reading resources, including magazines.

Book Fair

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported our recent Book Fair.  Over $6000 worth of books were purchased during the book fair, which is amazing!  Imagine all of the reading taking place over the holidays! 

All purchases at the book fair contribute to an allocation of Scholastic Rewards for our school library which we are able to use to purchase book titles requested by students.  This year we have raised $1900 worth of rewards which we will redeem with Scholastic over the next 12 months to purchase reading resources for our school library.

Thank you for your continuing support.

Congratulations to all of the students who submitted an entry into the “Design a Mini Beast” competition.  They entries were amazing and showed that everyone had put care and effort into their designs – it was so hard to choose winners for each year level. 

Congratulations Connie and Charlotte M, both in year 4, who correctly guessed the number of book worms in the bug catcher – there were 49 book worms.

Have a great week!

Mrs Wilkinson
