Congratulations to all those students who have returned their loans from last term, but we still have many outstanding loans – almost 300!! We look forward to getting them all back this week.

Next week:

Monday – Year 3 ** Change from Thursday because of Grandparents Day

Tuesday – Year 2

Wednesday – Year 5

Scholastic Book Club

Brochures are going home this week for the next issue of Book Club. Many thanks to those families who are supporting this program through your online purchases. Every purchase you make not only provides your children with some lovely books but also earns points for the school, and enables us to purchase resources for the Library. For Issue 5 Scholastic is giving way FREE books to help celebrate and spread the love of reading. You can get up to 3 free books:

• Receive 1 free book when you spend over $30;
• Receive 2 free books when you spend over $50;
• Receive 3 free books when you spend over $70.

Orders for Issue 5 will close on Tuesday 2  August.

Premiers' Reading Challenge

We now have quite a few students who have already completed the challenge, and more who have logged in and registered their books read so far. There are only 5 weeks left now to complete the challenge, so it is important to ensure that any books read are registered . It would be a shame to miss out by just a few titles. Go to:

https://products.schools.nsw.edu.au/prc/logon.html

Any student who is having difficulty registering the books is urged to come to the Library at Lunch 2 for assistance. 

Don’t forget to read with your children if you have time. Perhaps ask them what they are reading themselves, talk about what their library books are this week.

"The more that you read,

the more things you will know. The more that you learn, 

the more places you'll go."

Dr Seuss

Happy reading!
