Upcoming Events for Book Week
Book Week
Book Week is just around the corner and we are so excited to announce that we will be welcoming award-winning author, actor and playwright Sofie Laguna to our school on Wednesday, 21st August.
Sofie, who has written books for both adults and children, will be sharing her experiences and inspiring our students to build their storytelling skills through interactive and entertaining presentations catered to each year level. All students will get the opportunity to hear Sofie speak during one of three sessions- Prep-2s, 3/4s and 5/6s.
We look forward to having Sofie visit us during Book Week and are excited to hear all about her life and experiences as a published writer.
Let’s celebrate Book Week 2024
