COHR Library - The BOOK FAIR is coming in Term 3!

LIBRARY 

BOOK FAIR

The BOOK FAIR is returning in Term 3.  

We are looking forward to hosting a Lamont Book Fair at our school in Week 1 & 2 of Term 3.  This is a family and Australian run company we are working with again 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 one. Students will bring home a wish list to discuss with you about them purchasing one or more of their selected books.  Purchases are made either online or orders can be placed in the class buckets with the correct purchase amount and students will receive their books within a few days of placing their order. 

Once all classes have viewed the selection of books in their Library lessons in week one we will open it up to families.

Parents are invited to preview the books on Friday 14th July from 3.00pm - 4.00pm and then before or after school in Week 2 until the following Friday morning 21st July. 

Our Book Fair will be held in our school library.  Parents are welcome to view the books on display.

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.

Tuesday Mornings in the Library

WHO:  Families are invited 

WHERE:  to our school library

WHEN: on Tuesday's before school - (8.30am - 8.55am)

WHY: to read together, to choose and borrow books

 

We would like to open up our school library on Tuesday mornings before school if you would like to come and read as a family or choose some books together and borrow. Parents / Carers - you may like to visit just with your younger siblings if your school aged children want to continue to play outside.

At this stage we are opening up for family visits only.  Students have the option of extra borrowing at 'eating times', after school or on Friday's at Library Club, however we will review this as the term goes on dependant on numbers.

All we ask is that you bring along a library bag of sorts to take your selections home.

We look forward to opening up the library and sharing our many books with our families to enjoy and share the love and enjoyment of reading!

 

LIBRARY BAGS - our SPARE ones!

Still missing many of these spare library bags!

When students forget their Library bags we do have a collection of spares so as students don't miss out on borrowing.  We should have about 25 of these but currently we only have 3!  Could we please ask you to check students bags or around the home for any of our spare library bags and return these promptly.  Thanks
