Book Week 2017 (Week 7) – ‘Escape to Everywhere’
Book Week 2017 (Week 7) – ‘Escape to Everywhere’
The library is gearing up for our most exciting week in the year. With the Escape to Everywhere theme in mind, we have many activities planned for next week such as green screen images, an ‘escape’ room, codes and puzzles and more. As well, to encourage participation from children of any year level, we are promoting some fun competitions, which will be judged next Wednesday 23rd August: Edible Books, Mechanica Make, Brick It Lego book scene and Peg Doll book characters. Teachers have flyers about these and the details are also up on the library notice board.
Students (especially from Prep – Year 5) are invited to come as their favourite book character next Friday 25th August. This is an opportunity for students to use their imagination and creativity. An alternative to a costume could be a simple ‘prop’ such as a large magnifying glass and a hat to be ‘Truly Tan’ or an eyepatch and telescope to be ‘Captain Pugwash’.
We hope everyone is looking forward to this special event as much as we are!
