What a wonderful CBCA Book Week we’ve had! It’s been so lovely to see students and staff celebrating reading. Thank you to all parents and caregivers for your support in helping the students to dress up today.

Monday’s scavenger hunt was a fun event, where students had to find words on book covers throughout the school, and then make them into a sentence.

We had a fantastic visit from Sami Bayly on Wednesday. She told us great information about weird and wonderful animals, taught us how to draw some unusual creaures, and met with some of our budding illustrators and authors. We really appreciate how much time Sami gave to our very enthusiastic students, meeting with them individually between the formal sessions.

Today’s Book Parade was a great success, with many fabulous costumes, and lots of great conversations about books and book characters afterwards.

The students were entertained by the teachers’ play today, our interpretation of “Where the wild things are” by Maurice Sendak.
