Book Week 2024

Book Parade 2024

Please come along next week and watch our Book Parade for 2024! 

The theme for this year is 'Reading is Magic'.

When: Wednesday the 21st of August (Week 5). 9:30am - 10:00am

Where: Lower A Cola (outside Library)

Who: K-2. Students in 3-6 are more than welcome, and encouraged, to dress-up for the day and participate in the book parade if they wish to. They will have the same opportunity to parade as a collective group of 3-6 students.

Cost: Gold coin donation to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation

Book Swap

When: Wednesday the 21st of August (Week 5)

Where: Library

Who: All students who wish to participate. Students only, sorry parents :)

How: Students bring in a used book, which is still in very good condition, and exchange it for a book swap token. They are allowed to bring in more than one book and will receive a token for every book they bring in for the swap (i.e., if a student brings in 2 books they wish to swap, they will receive 2 tokens. On the book swap day, they will cash those 2 tokens in and select 2 new books to take home). Students will be asked to bring in any books they wish to swap on Monday and Tuesday the 19th and 20th of August . Students must not lose their tokens! They must also understand that the book swap is permanent – students will not be receiving or swapping their books back…so they should only bring in books they are totally finished with. 

Thank you for visiting Book Fair last week during Education Week!

Collectively, our sales totalled a massive $9323.40! Thank you all so, so much for coming along and contributing to Book Fair. Peakhurst Public School will receive $1865 from the total sales and this will be used to expand our collection of quality texts for our students to enjoy.
