Book Week

Our annual Book Week character costume parade took place last week and didn’t you all look fabulous!  Thank you everyone for joining in with our Book Week celebrations last week, it was great to see such a wonderful variety of book characters represented.  We hope that everyone spent some time reading and talking about books during book week. A special thanks to all the parents and other family members who helped our students with their costumes.

Premier's Reading Challenge

The Premier’s Reading Challenge reading period has now ended.  Please ensure your reading recording sheets are returned to your teacher by this Friday so that you ensure you receive your certificate acknowledging that you have completed the reading challenge.  These certificates will be presented later in the year.

The winning house for our interschool Premier’s Reading Challenge House Cup will be announced at assembly on Monday.  Good luck everyone!

Have a great week!
