Scholastic Book Club 2020
This week your children will be bringing home a copy of the Scholastic Book Club Catalogue that you can order from. Inside you’ll find award winning books and bestsellers, as well as old and new favourites. Not only are there books but stationary and other activity books. They cover a wide range of interests and reading levels, and they are at a great price (some as little as $2).
Each term there will be two issues of Book Club.
Each order helps us earn free books and teaching resources for our Primary School, however there is never any obligation to order.
Orders can only be placed online via scholastic.com.au/LOOP or using the LOOP app, which can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play (search for ‘scholastic loop’).
No money is taken through the Primary School for Book Club.
If you haven’t ordered before it’s easy: Please register for an account, identify Rangeview Primary School and the class your child is in. Enter the books you would like to order and your payment details.
When orders are returned to School, they will be delivered to your childs’ classroom and then given out to the children to bring home. If you’d like to order books for gifts please tick the “GIFT” box when ordering. These orders will be kept at the Office and you will be notified to collect them.
The due date for orders will be advertised in the School Newsletter / on Sentral / School Facebook page and on the Parents and Friends notice board (near the second hand uniform shop). This first issue will be due Monday 17th February (midnight).
Please contact Tracy at tbeckter1@bigpond.com if you have any questions.
Please keep this notice as a reference on how to order.
Please Note: Each year we have to set up new Class names and number of Students in each class in the Book Club. This often takes a few issues to get sorted. So if you can’t find your Class please order under another class in that Year level - I will be able to find you.
