Simultaneous Story Time from Space
Dr Shannon Walker from the International Space Station captivated us as she read, Philip Bunting's book 'Give Me Some Space'.
We re-watched the ending quite a few times. Zero G added a lot to a story time as Dr Walker let go of the book, which floated, then she shot up off the screen.
Community Reading Rewards: the Little Bookroom
The Little Bookroom is something of a Melbourne institution. The children's bookshop has recently located to new improved premises at 220 St Georges Road, Fitzroy. And now every time you buy a book there and mention the name of your school, 15% of your sale will go towards books for the school. So next time you or your friends shop there remember to say NEWLANDS!

Don't forget that the school has a subscription to this most excellent resource. One that proves especially useful during a lockdown.
