LIBRARY NEWS Thank you to everyone for finding and returning all those school library books. They are an expensive resource that is shared by many, so it is pleasing to see them valued and cared for. Borrowing will commence again early in the 2010 school year. Don’t forget to keep a record of any books your child reads over the holiday break, as these books may contribute to next years Premier’s Reading Challenge. I hope you all have an enjoyable Christmas and Happy New Year! Nerida Dalitz Teacher Librarian
