On Friday 24th July (Week 2) the Scholastic Book Fair will be delivered to school. Students will have the opportunity to browse the fair and create a 'wishlist' of items they would like to buy. This list will be sent home and if you wish to purchase, you can either scan the QR code, order online and students can collect the books in Week 3. Alternatively, purchases can be made in person, during Week 3, at the fair which will be set up in the library. 

 

During Week 3 (27–30 July), the Scholastic Book Fair will be set up at SJV.  Families will have the opportunity to browse and purchase a range of books and stationery. Every purchase helps our school earn Scholastic rewards, which can be used to purchase additional books and resources for our library and classrooms.

 

FAIR OPENING TIMES:

Monday - Thursday 

8:30 - 8:45
