ALIA National Simultaneous Storytime
National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS) is held annually by the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA). Every year a picture book, written and illustrated by an Australian author and illustrator, is read simultaneously in libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, family homes, bookshops and many other places around the country. Cranbourne Secondary College students enjoyed the treat of having a meaningful story read out to them and joining a national celebration of reading and Australian literature. Students then shared their own special family stories and memories.
World Environment Day Display
Our SRC leaders, Jordan Paton 10C (Environmental Captain) and Eman Haidari 10I created a wonderful display for World Environment Day.
Chloe Umali 8E also shared how searching with ‘Ecosia’ plants trees!
CBCA Shortlist Display
We are currently promoting the Eve Pownall Award category for students to read and later judge. Books in this category contain information presented in an imaginative and engaging way. Students can request and reserve other shortlist books of interest to them too. https://cbca.org.au/shortlist-2022
Work Experience Student - Sanjana Guraga 10A
We are looking forward to having Sanjana return to our library this week for her Year 10 Work Experience. Sanjana was one of our very much-loved library monitors from Year 7 to Year 9. She is well known for her beautiful feather bookmarks and willingness to help in any way.
Library Monitors Morning Tea
It was a pleasure to celebrate the wonderful help our library monitors and helpers have provided in the running of the library this term. They have been very busy preparing books for the Premiers’ Reading Challenge, assisting with circulation and the shelving of our books.
