From the Library

A HUGE THANK YOU must go to Rani (mother of twins Ashtin & Ashton in Year 6) for all her hard work and time spent contact covering some of the beautiful new books donated by families through the Paperbird fundraiser last year!

Covering new books is an ongoing task in school libraries so we are always most appreciative of help and volunteers - thank you!

Remember:

The Library gratefully accepts good condition children's book donations
The Library needs parent volunteers to cover new books
