We were certainly excited to welcome students from several schools in our Inner West region to Domremy College for a morning of celebration and everything books. The number of students attending proved that reading is still a popular and exhilarating activity amongst our young people, and that enjoyment of a good read and social interaction is both entertaining every bit as much as it is educational.<\/span><\/p>\n

We welcomed students from St Patrick\u2019s College, Strahfield, Trinity Grammar, and Christian Brothers Lewisham.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We heard from Paul McDonald, President of the CBCA (Childrens\u2019 Book Council of Australia) and an inspiring advocate of all things Young Adult Fiction. His knowledge and ability to captivate a young audience is truly inspirational!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Junior (Years 7-8) and Senior Club (Years 9-12) then divided into two groups where they forged friendships and talked about the latest Fantasy novels they had been reading. This was then followed by a provided morning tea.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you to Jessica Lonard, Head of Library, from St Patrick\u2019s as well who led the Senior group book discussions whilst I led the Junior students.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is a brief perspective on the events of the morning by Lara from Year 10;<\/span><\/p>\n

This week, Domremy College was thrilled to host the first\u00a0 7-10 Booknook club of 2025 where we came together to share our common interest and love for books. This event was a fun and memorable way to celebrate the power of books as well as form new friendships with students from other schools.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
