Writing book reviews for our library

We have been busy writing and producing some book reviews for our library. Our purpose is to help younger students be interested in reading by recommending what to read. We are also leaving a legacy by qr coding the reviews and adding them to the inside back cover of the books. This way when the younger students take a device to the library they can scan the code then se our review.

Books with our qr codes to access the reviews. 

We have also been deciding on the best ways to present our reviews. So far we have used Garageband, Imovie, Book creator, Doink Greenscreen and Google docs.

November 3rd, we are having a working bee at our school. We have a number of jobs

on our list ranging from handy-man jobs, maintenance on the playgrounds, putting

together an aviary, painting the boundary fence on Ranolf St, building a frame around

the sandpit, painting the container, constructing a fence bordering the library grounds,

painting Kakano’s playhouse, clearing the hall gutters (we have hired a scissor lift) and

I am sure there will be plenty more jobs to do. Come along and meet other parents, enjoy

a morning tea and a delicious lunch. Children are welcome also. For catering purposes

please let the office know if you can assist, even if it is just for an hour or two.

Here are the musical songs for everyone to practice at home.

BBQ

It's a great day for a bbq. Jett and George helped cook the sausages today.
