La Trobe Sport Bendigo

CHILDRENS BOOKS

Our Lions Club run a warehouse selling secondhand (and some new) books.  We have thousands of them, of all genres. We just wanted to let all the schools in our area know that on our sale days (2nd and 4th weekends of each month), we sell children’s books at the price of $5 for a supermarket bag full. We are in a warehouse at 60 Garsed Street Bendigo. If any of your parents wanted to purchase books for their children, this is a great way for them to get books very cheap. We also have “learning” books as well…. maths, science, cookery for kids, languages, spelling etc. All money raised from our book sales goes back into the community, with a small amount sent to help overseas disaster relief, but mostly local.
