No Gold Stars this week, let’s see if we can try to remember our Library bags for our next lesson. 

Tomorrow, Thursday, is Year One.

Next week:

Tuesday  - Year 3

Wednesday ** KINDER -  change due to Cross Country for Primary classes

Thursday  - Year 2

Friday  - Year 4

Because each class only borrows fortnightly, any student who finishes their books and would like to borrow in between lessons is welcome to bring their Library bag and come to the Library at Lunch 2 on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. They can return the books they have finished and choose some new ones!

Scholastic Book Club: Thank you to all those people supporting this program, orders will close this Friday 19th March.  Please make sure you choose the correct class for your child – every class is registered. Thank you again for your generous support.

Premiers' Reading Challenge: User names and passwords for login will be sent out next week if you requested it for your child in Kinder or Year One. Remember to look online at oliver.dow.catholic.edu.au/miev for  the PRC  books in our Library, or in the Eagle Vale or Campbelltown libraries for books with the PRC stickers. If the students are reading books from home, you can check to see if those titles are on the list. If the book is not on the list, each participant is allowed five free-choice books. Check the website  https://online.det.nsw.edu.au/prc/booklist/home.html

Daily reading: It is important for your children to see you reading too – they always love to imitate their parents. Even ten minutes a day is invaluable.

"I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers. To become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn't be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage."

Roald Dahl

Happy reading!
