We can’t thank you enough for taking the time to help get some much-needed resources on the shelf and in the classroom. We still have piles and piles to go so if you’d like some therapeutic covering sessions in the comfort of your own home, just flick me an email- bianca.gleeson@mn.catholic.edu.au (Note maiden name). I’m currently putting some more kits together for those that would like to go round 2 or have approached me at school.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

Spot the difference

The students (and yourselves) may have noticed a few changes in our library over the last few weeks. Mrs Stephenson has gone a little decorating mad! Students (and teachers) are loving the changes.

Typing time

As part of our library lessons, students will be participating in typing practice. Our library time is precious so to maximise typing time, I’ve asked all students to practise a few important skills.

K-2- Practise typing their first and last names. They must know how to spell these in order to log in to our computers. Their log in cards will be sent home this week to use for practice. These can remain at home as we have copies in the classroom and library.

3-6- Learn their school email. Firstname.lastname@mnstu.catholic.edu.au

K-2 Home Reading

Readers were sent home on Wednesday this week. Please return these each Wednesday to be changed. The reader and booklet are required to change readers over so please send these back in their plastic sleeve.

Library Borrowing

Library borrowing has commenced! Each Friday, all classes visit the library for borrowing. Every student is encouraged to browse and borrow from our amazing collection of books. All that the students need is a library bag! Students return their books each Friday ready to discover another amazing adventure in the form of a book. Each Friday assembly, the class that has the best borrowing rate will receive the LIBRARY BORROWING TROPHY! This gets to be displayed in the class for the next 2 weeks. The class that wins this the most over the year will earn a special reward day! Let’s get reading!
