Congratulations to all those students who have returned their books, well done. Hopefully many more books will come back this week, there are still quite a few students who have books at home. There are now 312 students  with overdue books – please look carefully under beds, behind desks and shelves, in secret spaces….

Tomorrow is Library day for Year One.

The first week back at school next term will be:

Tuesday 13 July -  Year 3

Wednesday 14 July – Year 5

Thursday 15 July – Year 2

Friday 16 July – Year 4

Premiers' Reading Challenge: We now have a few more students who have already completed the challenge, and quite a few who have logged in and registered their books read so far. There are EIGHT (8) weeks left to complete the challenge, so see how much you can do during the holidays.  Holidays are a great time to catch up with some extra reading, especially at this time of the year when it’s cold outside.

Remember Kinder – Year 2 must read 30 books, and Years 3 - 6 must read 20, with only 5 Personal Choice books allowed. If you are reading books from a series you can only count two towards your Challenge, any extra will be counted as Choice books, even if they are on the PRC list. We will login when we get back next term and register all the books that have been finished.

Enjoy the holidays, a great time to curl up with a book!!

The Premiers Reading Challenge aims to encourage a love of reading for leisure and pleasure in students, and to enable them to experience quality literature. It is not a competition but a challenge to each student to read, to read more and to read more widely.

Happy reading!
