Congratulations again to 2 Gold, the only class to have earned a Gold Star, well done!! The other Year 2 classes were close too … quite a few other classes have come close, with only two or three students forgetting. Remember our Library days:

This Thursday – Kinder

Next week:

Tuesday              –       Year 6

Wednesday         –       Year 5

Thursday            –       Year 3

Friday                 –       Year 2

Because each class only borrows fortnightly, any student who finishes the books they have borrowed and would like to change them in between lessons is welcome to bring their Library bag and come to the Library at Lunch 1 on Tuesday or Thursday. They can return the books they have finished and choose some new ones!

Premiers’ Reading Challenge:  All students from Years 2 - 6 will be automatically registered. Any student who remembers their login from last year can login and begin to register your books, your logins should not have changed. Year 2 is participating as a grade, the teachers will ensure they read the required books to the students, and all books will be registered at school. Any student from K - 1 who would like to take part, I just need a letter from parents please. Thank you to those who have contacted us already – please be patient, logins for new students will be sent home as soon as we receive the details.  You can begin to read your books, and keep a list at home. The booklists are found at: https://products.schools.nsw.edu.au/prc/booklist/home.html

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 how important it is to make time to read with your children for at least ten minutes a day.

"To read a book for the first time is to make an acquaintance with a new friend. To read it for a second time is to meet an old one."

Happy reading!
