Pre-K to Year 12 events this year!

Term 3 is the most exciting term, because we celebrate Book Week!

This year’s theme is Dreaming with Eyes Open. Imagine how much dreaming you can do through books.

For the first time in many years, the whole school, Pre-Kindergarten right through to Year 12, will dress up to celebrate Book Week on Wednesday 24 August.

Junior School students will be having a Character Dress Up parade, beginning at 9:00am on Wednesday 24 August.

Students are encouraged to dress up as their favourite book character, with an emphasis of recycling, reusing and recreating. There is no need to purchase a costume.

Secondary School students will celebrate all week. As well as dressing up as their favourite book character on Wednesday 24 August, there will be activities in the Secondary Library every day at lunchtime.

Take a walk past the Library for inspiration of character and costume ideas. Students are encouraged to think widely and consider an accessory or literary t-shirt.

More details will follow closer to the date, so keep an eye on Nexus. In the meantime, start brainstorming which character you will dress as!
