Overdue Library Books
Notices have now been sent home with students who have overdue library books, according to our library borrowing system.
As it is the end of the school year and we are required to do a stocktake of library resources, we would appreciate your assistance in helping your child find their book/s and return them as soon as possible.
Thank you to those students who have already returned any borrowed books, and thank you to parents for assisting their child in being responsible for the library books they borrow.

"The Travelling Bookshop: Mim and the Baffling Bully"
The right book might just change your life! Mim Cohen roams the world in a travelling bookshop with her dad and brother and a horse called Flossy. Flossy leads them where she will, to the place where they're needed most ... the place where the perfect book will find its way home. Now Mim has arrived in a pretty Dutch village where she meets Willemina, a kind and gentle child, who is being bullied by a girl named Gerda. Mim knows they're here to help Willemina. To change her life. To make her strong and brave and happy. If only Dad would find her the right book. If only he would stop giving everyone else the wrong book!
