The Boorowa Touch Football and Netball Carnival will be held on Friday 25 October (Term 4, Week 2). We are in the early stages of determining interest and numbers of teams we will enter. Please note that Boorowa is 1.5 hrs from Canberra and parents need to make their own arrangements for transport to and from the venue. The carnival is open to students in Years 3-6.

Book Fair – Week 9 & 10

We are very excited to have our book fair at the end of this term. This year our book fair is with Lamont Books and all purchases support our school through a rewards scheme which allows us to purchase new books for our library. We would love to see you at the fair!

Chief Minister’s Reading Challenge

A reminder that the challenge officially concludes at the end of this term. Our school prize draw will take place on the last day of term. Be sure to put your completed challenge forms in the barrel in the library.

The Great Book Swap

This year we will again support the Indigenous Literacy Foundation (ILF) by hosting a Great Book Swap. The Great Book Swap will be held next term as part of our CBCA Book Week celebrations. To help make the day a success, we are asking each child to donate a book in good, second-hand quality. Books can be donated at any time this term and can be dropped at either the front office or given to your child’s teacher. On the day of the Great Book Swap each class will visit the book stall and be able to choose a book for a gold coin donation. All money raised will then be used by the ILF to purchase books for Indigenous children in remote communities. We hope you will help us to support this great initiative.

Book Covering

There are some new books in the library ready for covering. If you are able to help  with this please reach out.
