Book Week

Book Week!

It's week 8 and it is the bookworms favourite week of the year!

Book week! A lot of things happened this week. The library

was jam packed full of books and other cool stuff like pencils

and rubbers, authors and poets were visiting the school,

the book parade was on Friday where we were able to

show off our costumes of our favourite book character!

Monday saw us in groups competing against one another

as we did a literacy quiz! There were 30 questions and

three topics. Each question we got right earned us a point!

And, we all had to pick a topic where we DOUBLED our

points.

The next day Tasman Flinn visited the school. We all sat in the

hall and sat on the chairs while she showed us her poems

and talked about poetry.

Then on Thursday, all of us year 5 and 6s went to Room 2 so

we could see Chris Gurney. She talked about her books and

how to make a book. And she picked a few volunteers to act

out a play, based off her own book called “Cindy And The

Lost Jandal” (Miss Down’s favourite book).

Then on Friday, we all dressed up in our favourite book

characters, and finished off the week with the book

parade! Where we showed off our amazing costumes

on the stage.

We all had so much fun during book week. Thank God for books!
