The Ickabog Illustration Competition

JK Rowling, the author of Harry Potter, has is publishing a new book for children called The Ickabog. She wrote this story a long time ago but filed it away. While being at home during lockdown she rediscovered it and has decided to share it with us all! 

 

JK Rowling has posted the first five chapters online and has created an illustration competition for children aged 7-12. The chosen illustration will be featured when the hard copy of the book is published.

 

If you are interested in reading the story (for free) online you can go to https://www.theickabog.com/read-the-story/

Book Club Issue 4 is running and brochures are back! 

Please find the catalogue online here

  

Much like last issue, all orders must be submitted online via the LOOP website or app. 

No cash orders will be accepted.

 

As all students are being transitioned back to school, orders will be delivered to the school after the close date of the Wednesday 10 June to ensure that the delivery arrives before the end of term. 

This eliminates the need for a delivery fee like last issue.

 

If you have any queries about Book Club, please email library@tarneitcollege.vic.edu.au and have Book Club in the subject.

 

We hope students enjoy the fantastic collection of titles on Issue 4.
