Blind date with a book

On Friday the 14th of July we hosted the blind date with a book launch party. Students put in their book preferences based on genres, likes and dislikes and they were then matched with their perfect book match. It was a great afternoon full of book talk and share the love of reading with each other.

Term 2 Student Book Group

The Student book group met in Week 7 to discuss the books from the 2025 Children’s Book Council Book of year awards list.
