Library News

Welcome back!  On this page you will find a poster displaying each years groups Library day.  Students are also very welcome to visit, and borrow, on any other day.  Please ensure your child has a bag to place their books in to keep them protected.  Any kind of bag is fine, even a plastic bag!  Students also have access to our digital reading app called SORA which gives them access to 1000's of e-books, audiobooks and magazines.  Over the coming weeks new students will be introduced to this fabulous resource.

What is it?

Scholastic Book Club is exclusively school-based and offer teachers and parents an easy way to purchase the best children's books at low prices.  There is a Book Club for every grade, from preschool through to junior high. In each issue in the Scholastic Book Club student catalogue, your child will find a terrific selection of new and noteworthy fiction, classics, award-winning titles, perennial favourites, reference and sports books and more.

How does it work?

1. Twice each term, teachers distribute the Book Club catalogues to their students.2. Students take the flyers home to select books, software or other items with their parents.3. Students use LOOP or return order forms and payments to the school. 4. The order is placed with Scholastic Australia.5. Within three weeks, the box of books arrives in your child's classroom.

When your child gets to choose their very own books, reading becomes a joy and an adventure. That excitement can carry over into a lifelong love of reading. Also, the earlier students become independent readers, the more likely they are to succeed in school.

What should I read next?

The book suggestions attached below can be found on our digital platform called SORA.  All students have access to the site.
