SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR IS NEXT WEEK!

It's an exciting time at OLC next week when a Scholastic Book Fair with a medieval flavour arrives in the library!  This year's theme is Kings, Queens and Castles.  The fair will run in the library before and after school on Tuesday and Wednesday and also before school Thursday morning of Week 4, for parents who wish to attend with their child to browse and make a book purchase.

During library lessons next week, students will have an opportunity to browse and make purchases if parents feel their child is capable of doing so independently.  Students may bring up to $10 to their lesson. A written parental acknowledgement must accompany students who wish to bring more than this amount to their lesson.

Each year group is invited to participate in a Book Fair Competition for their year level. Interested students have been given the competitions at this week's library lesson, however extra copies can be collected from the library if they happen to go astray. Entries are due next Monday the 11th of May. There will be one prize winner from each class who will win a Scholastic Reading Pack. Please leave entries in the allocated box inside the library door and make sure entries are clearly labelled with your child's NAME and CLASS.

Supporting the OLC Book Fair benefits all the students in our school, as we receive a minimum commission of 30% of the total sales to buy new books for the library. So come on down and see some of the great titles we have for sale and encourage your child's interest in reading.  We look forward to seeing you next week!
