National Simultaneous Storytime 2024

National Simultaneous Storytime will take place on Wednesday 22 May at 12:00 pm. This year's book is "Bowerbird Blues" by Aura Parker. It is a colourful, vibrant, fun event that aims to promote the value of reading and literacy. Hopefully we will be able to add some links for anyone who may wish to join in the event at home.

Premiers' Reading Challenge 2024

Don't forget that the Premiers' Reading Challenge is well under way. I know Declan has mentioned this in his Principal's message over the past few newsletters. Year Prep to 2 students are encouraged to read or listen to 30 books (20 or more books from the Challenge List attached below), and Year 3 - 6 students are encouraged to read 15 books (with 10 or more books from the Challenge List  attached below). 

It is not too late to join with participants having until 6th September to complete the challenge. Please contact Mrs Lisa Norris, our wonderful Library Technician, if your child/children wish to take up the challenge. Lisa can be contacted at lnorris@smbelgrave.catholic.edu.au
