This term in Library lessons we are looking at how we can use non-fiction texts and the internet to find the information we want. Year 4 students are looking at the impact of the First Fleet on the Aboriginal Community, and Year 3 are examining how our lifestyle - healthy eating and physical activity - influences our health and wellbeing.

It is not too late to start – we have till August. Remember if you are having difficulties logging in to register the books just come in to the Library at Lunch 2 for help.

"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!
