LIBRARY
WELCOME BACK EVERYONE
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. I certainly did reading in the sun or the shade, just perfect.
Voting character competition - Did anyone check out the CBCA site for the Shortlist books?
The winners will be released on Friday. I'm sure when the results are released much interesting discussion and debate will ensue.
Best Borrower Term 2 Voucher Holders
If your child still has one of these at home they may bring it in to spend at the Book Fair.
Library Leaders
The Yr 6 Library Leaders are gearing up for a big week - assisting with the book fair, book week activities, and the parade on Friday. I am very thankful that these students are so enthusiastic and give up their playtimes to volunteer.
PK Mag
Parents check out the PK Mag site on the Library homepage. This is a student-friendly online magazine which the library subscribes to. The magazine affords students the opportunity to submit book reviews which then receive Australia wide coverage. It's always a great buzz of excitement when one of our own students features "online" for a large audience. The latest issue features three Yr 6 students Halley, Grace and Maddie. Check it out with your family.
IT"S HERE, the week we all love and live for!
BOOK WEEK 2020
Monday 19 to Friday 23 October
"Curious Creatures, Wild Minds"
Students have received a note regarding the Book Fair and Book Week. Please ensure you have sighted and read this note as it has many details about both events.
If paying for a book/s via Cheque please make out to 'St Nicholas School', pay online using the wish list instructions, or cash in a ziplock bag.
BOOK FAIR NEWS FLASH
Remember parents you cannot attend the Fair BUT photos will be taken of the books so when your child brings home the "wish list" you can go to the Newsletter NewsFlash or your child's class Facebook page, over the weekend or on Monday, to view the cover of the book/s. This way you could get some background on the book, contents, and suitability.
Character Parade Day - NEXT FRIDAY
The excitement is building. Discussions this week with classes have me so totally impressed with student and parent imaginations.
CRAZY SOCK DAY
Yes, there is a book called "A Rat in a Stripy Sock" who would have thought it. Picture books never cease to amaze me.
Here's a thought... still deciding with your child about their character costume for NEXT FRIDAY?
Put on on your crazy socks from crazy sock day, make some rat ears, draw on some whiskers and blow up some balloons and WALLAH!
LIBRARY BAGS LIBRARY BAGS LIBRARY BAGS
Please ensure your child has a library bag to begin Term 4, thankyou!
These can be purchased for $1.00 from the library.

Food and drink is for the chooks
Library bags keep ‘em clean
