National Reconciliation Week 2021 - More Than A Word. Reconciliation Takes Action

There are many events happening around the school to recognise this important week including the library’s eye-catching display made by our library monitors. We have some great books to learn more about reconciliation and check out our growing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander collection in biographies, non fiction and fiction.

Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge

We are off and running with the Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge which runs until September 17th. Well done to the Year 7s who have read over 700 books! Please contact library staff if you have any questions or issues. All students who meet the Challenge will receive a certificate of achievement signed by the Victorian Premier and former Premiers. To read the Premier’s letter to parents, view the booklist and for more information about the Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge, visit:www.education.vic.gov.au/prc
