COHR Library - The BOOK FAIR is coming!

LIBRARY NEWS

The BOOK FAIR is returning in Term 3. After a two year break due to the pandemic, it is back!

We are looking forward to being able to host a Lamont Book Fair at our school in Week 2 & 3 of Term 3. This is a family and Australian run company we are working with this year.

A Book Fair is an opportunity to purchase quality literature for your children or friends. All students will have preview times in their Library lessons during week two. Students will bring home a wish list to discuss with you about them purchasing one or more of their selected books. Purchases are all made online and students will receive their books within a few days of placing their order. Parents are also invited to preview the books from Friday 22nd July, before or after school until the following Friday morning 29th July. Our Book Fair will be held in our school library. Parents are welcome to view the books on display during our Parent Teacher chats that will be held that week.

Please note there is no obligation to buy but our school does receive a generous commission in the form of books to add to our library. More information to come in Term 3.

Library Bags

To help protect our books, we ask that students have a library bag of any kind. At times, we know that students forget their bags and they can borrow some of our spare calico bags. We are asking if families can check at home for any COHR Library bags as our supplies have diminished and we're thinking they might be at the bottom of school bags, under beds or on bookshelves! If you find any, they can be placed in each classroom's library box. Many thanks.
