Book Week 2026 - Symphony of Stories
Book Week will take place in Week 6 between 24 - 28 August. The 2026 Children's Book Week theme, Symphony of Stories, celebrates reading stories and their amazing power to transport minds. This year, we are looking forward to the following events that will help us celebrate Book Week.
Book Week Parade - Monday 24 August - Period 1. Parents/carers are warmly welcome to join the parage which will be held on SPC 2 from 8:40 AM.
