A reminder about our Book Week celebrations next Thursday 27 August. We look forward to seeing lots of families join us for reading in classrooms and our Book Week Character Parade!

Launching into Learning Out and About Session coming up soon. Great opportunity for our LiL families! RSVP to Mrs Johns.

Today the whole school enjoyed the NED Show. Tomorrow our yoyo sales begin and students can practise learning new tricks while spreading NED’s message: Never give up, Encourage others and Do your best!

Get sorting out those book shelves and bring in unwanted books in good condition for our Book Week Book Swap! Tubs are in classrooms ready for collection.

Our weekly Pre-Kinder sessions are now underway for children born in 2022! These fun and engaging sessions provide a wonderful opportunity for children and their parent or carer to learn, play and become familiar with our school environment before starting Kindergarten in 2027.
Our LiL Playgroup also continues Wednesdays 9:00-10:30am and is open to all children from birth to 4 years.
We look forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new families to our school community

Book Week School Book Swap
As part of our Book Week celebrations, we are excited to host a School Book Swap! We encourage families to have a clean-out of bookshelves, bedrooms, and play areas and set aside any good quality children's books that are no longer being read.

What can be donated?
✅ Children's books in good condition
✅ Picture books, early readers, chapter books, and non-fiction books
❌ Books that are damaged, heavily marked, or missing pages

Let's work together to refresh our bookshelves, reduce waste, and celebrate the joy of reading!

Celebrate Book Week with us!
Thursday 27 August students are invited to dress as their favourite book character. We encourage families to make, find, borrow, create and reuse wherever possible when putting together outfits. The focus is on having fun, sharing a love of stories, and showcasing creativity.

Scholastic Book Club Issue 5 has been shared with our families. There are some great book specials as well as the opportunity to receive a Spotlight voucher. Every purchase helps us earn new books for our school! Orders will close Friday 14 August.
