Premier's Reading Challenge

With 35 days officially remaining, the race to the finish line is in

 sight!  We really hope that you are all enjoying your reading journey this year and have been to some exciting places, met some amazing characters, had a laugh, learned some fabulous

 facts and discovered some fabulous authors!

 

Congratulations and appreciation to everyone who has been taking part, logging your books, posting reviews – we encourage you to keep up this commitment and encourage your fellow students to join in and be a part of the celebration.

 

The total number of books read should soon exceed 6000!

 

Congratulations to our consistent top 5 readers ...  you are amazing, keep the momentum going!

Grade 2 students continue to lead the way and 2B are edging closer to 1500 books – way to go spaghettios!

 

Mrs Hagan is currently on leave which means the Premiers’ Reading Challenge window display will be taking a break but rest assured the website will be updated and the new numbers will be back on display from September 4th! 

 

Celebrating Book Week

This year at Karoo we are very excited to be celebrating Book Week 2023 with a very special musical treat on Thursday 24th August.

This is a whole school incursion to be held inside the gym. There will now be two performances on the day:

 

Years 4-6:                       10:00-11:30 am

Foundation – Year 3:   12:30-2:00pm 

 

Karoo Celebrates Children's Book Week

Calling all Superheros, Wizards and Witches, Pirates and Princesses, Grinches and Gruffalos, Mermaids and Wallys!

 

 We invite you to join in the fun and come dressed as your favourite book character! We need colour, sequins, hats, wigs and wands, cloaks and capes to dazzle and delight as we dance, sing and celebrate our love of books!
