Library Incursion - 'Being Indy' - Zoe Gaetjens
Last Thursday, Books to Life theatre company performed 'Being Indy' on stage at SJV. A wonderful shortlisted picture story book selected by the Children's Book Council of Australia. We were thoroughly entertained and the students enjoyed the performance.
