Indigenous Book Swap

 

Next Wednesday the 21st November, the school will be holding their annual Book Swap. The book swap is a fantastic way to celebrate reading in our local community, and raise much-needed funds for remote Indigenous communities. The idea is to swap a favourite book in exchange for another, for a gold coin donation. Last year, the Indigenous Literacy Foundation raised over $190,000 from the Great Book Swap and this year their goal is to raise $300,000 to gift 30,000 new books to remote communities who have few to none.

This year, the year 2’s will be supporting the JRC and helping bring the book swap together. See below for the details

When: Wednesday 21st November
Time: 11am
Location: School Gym
What to Do: Bring an appropriate, well-conditioned book and a gold coin donation. Bring the book to the
gym at the beginning of the day, get a raffle ticket and then come back at lunchtime and chose your new
book!

Below are some posters the year 2’s have made that will be put around the school on Monday!
