Next week we will be holding a Book Cow Book Fair. The Book Cow is a local bookstore in Kingston and has a great range of books including November new releases. All sales at the book fair support the purchase of new books for the library collection.  We have extended opening hours from 8.00am - 9.00am and 3.15pm - 5.00pm each day, Monday 13 November to Friday 17 November. The Book Cow also has an online portal where you can pay and we will be notified and will deliver the books to your child.  We look forward to seeing you in the library getting some great Christmas presents or holiday reads. 

To add to the excitement of the Book Fair we have local authors Cate Whittle and Jacinta Froud visiting the BooK Fair on Tuesday 13 November from 3.15pm - 4.00pm. David Conely, another local author,  will be visiting Year 3 and Year  4 on Thursday 15 November and his books will be available at the Book Fair. 

Readers Cup 

On Friday 27 October we hosted the CBCA ACT Readers Cup. 29 teams from across 13 Canberra schools had spent the last six weeks reading 5 novels and had to answer 10 quiz questions on each book. We had 3 teams participating. They have had a great time over the last few weeks reading the books and quizzing one another about the books. They demonstrated fantastic teamwork in the lead up to the quiz and at the quiz and can be very proud of their achievements. Well done April, Kobe, Lachlan D, Cooper D, Grace E, Esther, Emma, Ivan, Lachlan P, Kushi, Jesse and Sian.
