Book Week


We are celebrating Book Week at St Albans School in Week Five (August 26-30). This is a fantastic week where we will celebrate books, authors, illustrators, reading and the wonderful world of literacy.
On Monday 26 August we are having a Book Character Parade.
On this day we ask the children to come along to school dressed as a book character
please also bring along a copy of the book the character is from if at all possible. We will be parading costumes at 9.15am on this day parents are welcome to stay and watch this fun event. We have heaps of prizes that have been donated by Paper Plus Merivale.
We will also be running a Book Fair over the week. Each class will walk through the Book Fair and the children will bring home a wish list of the books they might like perhaps they could even do some jobs around home to earn some pocket money to spend at the Book Fair.
Parents are encouraged to visit the Book Fair during the week it will be open from 8.30-9.15am and 2.30-3.15pm each day. EFTPOS is available at the office. This is a great way to stock up on books and help our school at the same time we are donated a percentage of all sales to spend on library books for our school.
We have a lot of great competitions planned for over the week too the children will find out more about these next week. Classes will celebrate Book Week in the way that suits them best.
We really appreciate your support.
