We will also hold our first ever Where the Wild Things Are Book Fair.

Where the Wild things are is a local book store in our community. They will be offering a talk for parents on choosing books for your children, and then run a book fair for the following week. More details to follow.

Thank you for encouraging your child to be a reader and also supporting the care of our resources by supplying a book bag.

Scholastic Bookfair

A huge thank you needs go to all the parents who supported our Scholastic Book Fair. We sold $6500 worth of product which has helped us buy $1900 worth of decodable home readers for our Junior School. We could not have done this without you!
