Term 4 in the Library

It’s hard to believe we’re already over halfway through Term 4! Time is flying by, and it’s been another wonderful fortnight in our school library — full of curious minds, exciting stories, and plenty of reading fun. There’s always something new to discover on our shelves, so make sure to pop in and see what captures your imagination next!

Book Club

Exciting news — Book Club Issue 7 orders have arrived and were given to students this week. Thank you to all families who placed an order, we hope you enjoy your new books!

Book Club Issue 8 is now live, and we are accepting orders! Orders need to be completed and returned by Friday, 28th November.

Orders can be:

• Returned to the school office, or

Overdue Books

Overdue notices were sent home last week for students who currently have library books outstanding. Please ensure these books are returned as soon as possible, as we are aiming to finalise all overdues by Friday of Week 9.

If you are unable to locate a book, please contact me via email at📧 ewhitney@arm.catholic.edu.au

Your help in keeping our library collection complete is greatly appreciated!

Library Borrowing

Library borrowing continues each week:

• Stage 3 (Years 5 & 6): Thursdays

• All other stages: Fridays

Please remember to bring a library bag on your borrowing day to protect your books on their journey between school and home. A gentle reminder — No bag = No borrow, and students with overdue books will be unable to borrow until these have been returned.

As we move into the final weeks of term, keep exploring, keep reading, and keep discovering new adventures through books. Every story you read opens the door to a new world waiting just for you!
