Indigenous Literacy Foundation Great Book Swap

We are participating in the 2022 Indigenous Literacy Foundation Great Book Swap, a fundraising activity that shows a commitment to social justice, and a belief in our vision that reading opens doors to future opportunities and choices.

If your child would like to participate in the event, we ask that they bring a favourite book and place it in the box in the office foyer prior to Monday 12th September. They will be given a token that they can use to swap a book on the dates below.

The books will then be placed in the Lower Building and students will be able to swap their book for another with a gold coin donation and their token before or after school on Wednesday 14th and Thursday 15th September .

This year our goal is to raise $300 to gift over 15,000 culturally relevant books to children living in remote Communities in 2022. After all, how can you learn to read if you don’t have access to books?

The Indigenous Literacy Foundation fundraising site also allows you to make an online donation to our school’s Great Book Swap in the lead up to the event. If you are interested in doing this please follow this link:

Thank you for your support and we look forward to celebrating the national Great Book Swap with you, your child and the school community.

Happy swapping!

Thanks for all your fantastic assistance, you showed great maturity and initiative. I would also like to thank the many families who participated in the special lunch, your continued participation and support helps to ensure the financial viability of the Canteen.

Next term, the Canteen will revert back to it's Summer menu and certain Winter warmers will be unavailable. The Canteen will also be trading from Monday through to Friday, with lunch orders available each day. We are also planning to be open after School on those warmer days.
