Book Week

Hi Everyone,

Book Week is approaching fast and will be held between the 22nd-26th August.

The theme this year is Dreaming with Eyes Open. There are many ideas Online and you can use your imagination as to the things to do.

There will be a Book Fair, an Illustrator visit, Year 5/6 Book Week poster competition with prizes given for best poster and some lucky draw prizes for those who have purchased books from the book fair.

Below is a rundown of what and when things will be happening at OLHC for Book Week.

Week 6
