LIBRARY NEWS

Welcome to our school library for 2022! We are looking forward to enjoying our library space - in our lessons, lunchtime clubs, author visits, Book Week and a Book Fair!

All students have a weekly 45 minute lesson where a story is read and discussed. Students have time to borrow and are expected to borrow either weekly or fortnightly. Each class has a library box where returned books can be placed. To help protect our books, all students are encouraged to have a library bag and we thank those students that do.

PRC - Premier's Reading Challenge Victoria.

We are pleased to Congratulate 94 students who completed the challenge in 2021. Our certificates arrived in the last week of the school year and were presented to students at assembly.

We had over 30 students who read well beyond the target of either 15 or 30 books depending on their year level. Extra congratulations to the following students who received a commemorative pin for their wonderful efforts.

Scholastic Bookclub at COHR

COHR is pleased to work with Scholastic Australia and provide a book club where families can purchase books for their children. Each term there are two issues with a variety of books on offer for all ages. Students will bring home the brochures, families can peruse and then order online. If you do happen to place an order at school, we ask that you have correct cash or use the credit facilities. Orders are sent to school and we thank our volunteer Mums - Anna Saraullo & Agnes Bermingham for coordinating these orders.
