What's happening in Term 4

“To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark."

—Victor Hugo

OVERDUES

Have you received a message that your books are overdue?  We need them back!

Have you checked under the bed, behind the couch or in that mysterious pile of books at home?

 

We are currently tracking down some overdue library books and would love your help getting them back to their home in the Karoo Library!

Please take a few minutes to check your child's school bag, bedroom, bookshelves and anywhere else a much-loved library book might be hiding.

 

Remember:

  • Books are borrowed for 2 weeks.
  • Library books can be returned to the library at any time.
  • Books can be reborrowed, but they need to come back to the library to be scanned.
  • Books can be returned even if they are overdue.
  • If a book has been lost or damaged, please contact the school library so we can work out the next steps.

Every book returned means another student gets the chance to enjoy it!

Thank you for helping us bring our missing books home.

 

LIBRARY END OF YEAR

To prepare everyone as we head towards end of year, please note the last week of borrowing will be Week 7, with all books due back by Week 9 to allow time for our annual library stocktake in Week 10 and 11.

 

Please help your child check their school bag, bedroom, bookshelves and reading corners for any Karoo library books that may be hiding!

 

All families with overdue or lost books will be contacted in Week 9. 

 

A little friendly competition

Just like last year, the first class to return ALL student and teacher library books from their class will win a prize! So, let's see which class can get everything back first.

Thank you for helping us keep our library collection complete, organised and ready for another year of reading adventures.

 

Happy book hunting!
