Again thank you to parents for supporting this fun annual event.

For our Book Week dress up day, I dressed up as an army man from the Kokoda Trail. In the morning we had a parade and during lunch time a lot of people were playing games that involved their characters. We had different activities throughout the day with the grade 4 teachers and grade 3 teachers. We read different book and did lots of activities. It was a very fun day! - Evan 3M
During Book Week I loved that everyone dressed up as book characters. It was fun to guess who everyone was. My favourite part was completing fun activities with each of the Year 3 and 4 teachers, like how we made origami birds after reading the Book of Curious Birds. I also loved reading lots of special Book Week Books. - Matilda 4L
Throughout book week my class and I got to participate in many fun activities including watching all the grades walk through the parade, cheering on classes and reading to the year ones. On Monday different teachers read us interesting and award winning books. In conclusion, book week was a big enjoyment and I had a great time. I learnt new information about authors and stories while still having a great time. - Alice 5D
We loved dressing up and participating in the parade, everyone’s costumes were amazing!
The activities were fun - reading the picture story books and engaging in the activities. We enjoyed creating our ‘Dreaming’ stories and have spent time throughout the week perfecting them. Just One Bee was a good story and it was interesting investigating some of the reasons why bees are endangered and how people are trying to help them. ‘Jetty Jumping’ kept us on the edge of our seats - Would she ever jump? Grade 6
