BOOK WEEK Book Fair & Book Character Day

Thursday 31 May (Dunsborough Campus)

Friday 1 June (Busselton Campus)

It's Book Week and that means the excitement of choosing and sharing our favourite books and story characters .  This year our celebrations include the annual Scholastic Book Fair where you can stock up on books for your children at very reasonable prices.  Part of the proceeds will directly provide the College libraries with new books for our students. 

 

The Dunsborough campus will have special guests ready to read to students as they weave their way through the bush, guided by their teachers.  Their Book Character Day will be on Thursday 31 May.  You are most welcome to join the staff and students of our Dunsborough campus in the surrounding bush at 11am, 12noon and 2pm for a book reading.  Kindy students will have the opportunity to purchase books from the Book Fair on Thursday with PP-Y5 students able to purchase on Friday - there is even a special section for our playgroup attendees this year!

 

Both Primary and Secondary School students and staff at the Busselton campus will join together in dressing up for Book Character Day on Friday 1 June. This is intended to be a joyful celebration of reading and an opportunity for us to express our God-given imagination and creativity. It will also be wonderful for students (big and small), siblings and adults to have fun together as a community.
