Author Visit
Our Year 3 to 6 students met author and illustrator Sami Bayly this week. This was a fantastic opportunity for the students as they have been studying Sami Bayly and her books during their Library lessons. Sami spoke about her work as an author and illustrator, taught us how to draw a Common Jack Mackerel and the Tongue-biting Louse from her book “The Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Peculiar Pairs in Nature”. Sami answered the many questions our students had prepared for her. Thank you to The Temora Shire Library for inviting us to listen to such an inspiring person.
Book Week
Students in K-6 are invited to dress up for Book Week on Thursday 25th August. Students are to wear their costume to school in preparation for a parade in the morning. Please ensure that your child is wearing suitable shoes for school. Our SRC students will run the parade and award prizes to the best costume in each class. Unfortunately, due to our current COVID restrictions parents and families members are unable to attend the parade this year.
Book Fair
Thank you for supporting the Scholastic Book Fair. You have helped raise $921.50 for our Library. Our students will be creating Wish Lists in their Library lessons later this term to purchase new books which they will be able to borrow from our Library.
Some students are still waiting on books which they ordered through the Book Fair. As soon as these arrive they will be distributed to students.
