Accelerated Reader
Congratulations to Areesha who this week reached her goal of 1 million words. This is a fabulous achievement and we are very impressed by her commitment to reading.
Congratulations also to Lucy who reached 2 million words late last week! This is such an impressive achievement and we look forward to seeing how many more words she will read this year!
Well done to Areesha and Lucy – we are proud of both of you and have added photos to our special AR display.
Premier’s Reading Challenge
Don’t forget to return any completed forms to the Hub as soon as possible. There is only two more weeks to complete this super challenge!
Book Week
Don’t forget that as part of our Book Week celebrations we have a special Book Week competition. We already have a couple of super entries but would love to see so many more! The theme for Book Week is ‘Dreaming with your eyes open’, so our competition is a great way to share what kind of places you like to dream and read about! Our competition ends on Monday 22 August so there is still plenty of time! Don’t forget to add your name and class to every entry.
Book Fair
We are also excited to announce that our Book Fair will soon be here! Opening on Friday 19 August, Book Fair will provide a special opportunity to purchase some new books for the whole family as well as support our school. For every book purchased, our school receives a percentage of funds from Scholastic to buy new books for the Hub. The Book Fair will be open from Friday 19 August until Wednesday 24 August from 8am until 3.15pm. Book Fair will also be open every first break for these few days! We can’t wait to see you there!
Have a fantastic week
