Author visit-Dr Cameron Stelzer, The Story Doctor.

 On Thursday 12 October, we have a special visit from Author and Illustrator Dr Cameron Stelzer. Dr Cameron is visiting St Joseph’s Primary School to run workshops with our K-4 students (Year 5-6 students worked with Cameron earlier in Term 3). Kinder students will enjoy an interactive Big Screen Book Reading and follow-along drawing activity with Cameron. Stage 1  students will participate in a writing workshop focusing on idea formation and inspiration for narratives. Stage 2 students will engage in a writing workshop exploring the combination of words and visual elements. Students and teachers are looking forward to a great day! In conjunction with the Author Visit, St Joseph’s families have a special opportunity to purchase signed and personalised copies of Cameron’s books at special prices. Individual books are $10-$15 each and there are also exclusive book sets available. Students will receive an order form on the day of the workshops (payment is via the online payment portal listed on the form; no cash). Forms can be returned the following day, to the Office.

Below are photos of some of our stage 3 girls illustrating some of the characters from Cameron's Books. I think they did an amazing job.

Please encourage your child to return and borrow each week.
