"Reading for pleasure is the most important way to advance literacy attainment in children.”​

National Literacy Trust UK​

Thank you to the wonderful parents who attended last night’s Reading Workshop.  Paul was highly engaging and motivating, giving us insight into the latest book trends. 

“Children who know adults who read for pleasure take it for granted that​ reading is a valuable and worthwhile activity”  ​

(Csikszentmihalyi, 1991) 

This week classes are bringing home their Book Fair Wish Lists. They are all very excited to visit when the Book Fair is open next week. 

Please see the attached information and get excited!

Pirate Flag competition

Students are also encouraged to design a ‘Pirate’ themed flag on an A4 piece of paper. We have had lots of entries already and they need to be into the Library by Tuesday afternoon (Week 4). There will be a prize for the winning entry in each grade, judged by Mr Johns and Mrs Williams.

Please take note of your child or children’s library days. Kinder- Year 4 must have a Library Bag to borrow books to take home.  

Keep reading! Mrs Basedow
