In library classes we have been reading and discussing the CBCA shortlisted book for 2021. The students are always so engaged in reading and talking about books and I wanted to share it with you so I took a few photos today. It’s wonderful to see so many students choosing books to borrow for home too.
ST ITA'S BOOK WEEK DRESS UP
Book week is organised by the Children’s Book Council of Australia. This is the week that libraries, bookshops and schools around Australia celebrate Australian books, authors and illustrators. Book week officially runs from 21st August to the 27th August, however at St Ita’s we will be celebrating during Week 8 this term.
In library class during Week 1 we learned about the theme for the CBCA Book Week: Old Worlds, New Worlds, Other Worlds. During this term we will be reading the shortlisted books and we’ll also attend a performance by Perform Education in Week 8 based on these books.
