GUESS WHO'S COMING TO OLSC?

Next term, in the lead-up to Book Week, we are going to be very excited to welcome Kate and Jol Temple to our school!! They are a husband and wife duo from Sydney who have brought us the wonderful Bin Chicken series (and many more!!). 

Kate and Jol will be speaking to all of us about how they come up with their stories and will also be signing books for those students who are interested. Families will also be able to pre-order signed copies of Kate and Jol's books - keep an eye out for the ordering information over the next week or so.
