138 students from Domremy and another 38 students from St Vincent\u2019s College Ashfield took part in the Combined Schools Book Club Event on Wednesday this week.<\/span><\/p>\n

The theme for the day was \u2018Classics\u2019 and it was amazing to see our girls excited to talk and discuss the \u2018classic\u2019 novels they have read. This was followed by morning tea and a chance to forge new friendships.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students were treated to a presentation from the incredibly knowledgeable Paul McDonald. Paul is a highly awarded children\u2019s literature advocate, author, and the former president of the Children\u2019s Book Council of Australia (CBCA) NSW branch. He also owned the Children\u2019s Bookshop, which was an award-winning Sydney literary institution since 1971. He has a Master of Education, working almost 20 years as a teacher of Upper Primary and Secondary. He has also won the Quality Teachers Award and the Premier\u2019s English Scholarship, as well as the Maurice Saxby and Lady Cutler Awards for services to children\u2019s literature and literacy in Australia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students participated incredibly enthusiastically and were introduced to many titles which I hope they will eagerly devour and be inspired by!<\/span><\/p>\n

Reading and literacy are a community wide priority at Domremy!<\/span><\/p>\n
