Library Book Week!

Library Book Fair Week!!

As the head of the library group I was given the pleasure of helping to organise an exciting and extravagant Book Week. Book week helps to promote reading with all our students, as well as encouraging parent involvement and community. Thanks you to everyone who helped make this week possible!
We shared lots with our parents via the Newmarket School newsletter

Special Thanks to L'affare Coffee for supplying us with delicious coffee each morning!

We started off our week with a teacher swap. The teachers went to different classrooms and read their favourite books to the students. The students loved this change of pace!

Towards the end of the week we had a bake sale to raise money for the library.  L'affare Coffee Newmarket provided us with coffee to sell. We also had a dress up day where all the students dressed up as their favourite book character. This was a big hit!

As part of book week we also set up some buddy class reading sessions. Older and younger students came together to practice their reading skills and enjoy a story or two. The kids loves this!
