St Mary’s celebrates Book Week every year. Our Library lessons this term focus on the CBCA short-listed titles. The books are chosen from the different categories – Eve Pownall (non- fiction titles), Younger Readers, Picture Books, New Illustrator and Early Childhood titles.

Students are invited to send in a picture of themselves on holiday in Australia or overseas to add to our Library display. Some students have sent in a postcard or their boarding pass from trips they have taken. You are welcome to email me a photo.

The theme for 2025 is ‘BOOK AN ADVENTURE’. Students might like to start thinking about a costume to wear in our school parade which will be held on FRIDAY 22nd August at 9.00am. All families are welcome to join us for this celebration.
