LIBRARY NEWS

Congratulations to K Gold, the first class to earn a Gold Star for the year!!  Many other classes are close, it is looking better this week! Again  - a reminder of Library Days for each grade this week:

Thursday – Year 2

Friday – Year 4

Next week 

Tuesday – Year 6

Wednesday – Kinder

Thursday – Year 1

Please remind your children to bring their Library Bags on the day of their lesson. A Library Bag is essential to protect the books while in transit, so they cannot borrow without a bag. We have already had one book damaged because it was returned to school in the school bag without being protected by the Library Bag.  Library Bags can be purchased from the Second Hand Uniform Shop which is open each Monday from 8:30 a.m. until 9:00 a.m. or from the Office for $10.00. Thank you for your support in this matter.

Premiers' Reading Challenge - Even though we can’t register yet for the PRC you can start reading the books. It is an easy challenge – students in Years 3 - 6 only need to read 20 books from the PRC list, and students in K, 1 and 2 are required to read 30. The booklists are found at:

https://online.det.nsw.edu.au/prc/home.html

If you would like a record sheet it can be printed from the website, or the students can collect one from the Library at Lunch 2.

You can search our Library catalogue to see all the available books on the list – go to:  oliver.dow.catholic.edu.au/miev, and type ‘premier’ in the search box. You can then select the required level, either K - 2, 3 - 4, or 5 - 6.

Daily Reading - Please remember to try to read with your children for at least ten minutes a day, and encourage your children to read themselves. February 3  was World Read Aloud Day, a day when all around the world people are encouraged to read aloud to each other to focus on the importance of reading aloud and sharing stories. Around the world parents and teachers recognise the value of reading aloud to your children, no matter how old they are. Have a look at the website, http://www.litworld.org/wrad, and even download a book to share with your children.
