Book Week

Book Week is Coming to SFX 

Book Fair

The Scholastic Book Fair will run from Monday 11th - Thursday 14th September. 

Children will be visiting the fair on Monday 11th and creating a wish list. Children can then bring back their wish list with money to purchase books. You can also pay online and send in the receipt number on the back of the wish list.  The book fair will be open to families Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday between 8:15-9am and 3-3:30pm. 

Dress up & Parade

The Book Week Parade will be held on the final morning, Friday 15th September. We would love everyone to participate by dressing up. We encourage families not to spend large amounts of money on costumes. Instead, try to utilise what you already have at home or spend some time being creative! We will have our parade on the basketball court at 8:45am (weather permitting). Families are welcome to attend. 

Grandparent's Afternoon

We will have a Grandparent's afternoon from 2 - 3:15pm on Wednesday 13th September. 

Grandparents are invited to join their grandchildren in their classrooms for some fun book week activities. There will also be an opportunity for grandparents to visit the book fair with their grandchildren if they wish. At 3pm grandparents will be invited into the Red Centre for afternoon tea. 

New Books for the Library

One of the responsibilities of our student librarians is to select books to purchase for our library. Thomas, Ema and Willow got to choose a range from our latest Scholastic Book Club brochure. They did a fantastic job in considering what our students across the school love to read, and what they thought would be wonderful additions to our library shelves. The librarians will also have the opportunity to shop for our library at our book fair later this term.
