Book Parade Roving Reporters

During our Book Parade last Friday, two library leaders, Genevieve Livesey (Year 5) and Eve Hutchison (Year 5), asked some of the girls what they loved about Book Week. Here are their responses:

Antonella Crook (Year 1) – (Book week parade character – Whitney, chicken diva) reading
Sahana Siva (Year 3) – (Book week parade character, Taylor Swift) seeing what friends look like.
Vanilla Chen (Year 4) – (Book week parade character Ice cream) to read books
The Matildas group (Year 4) to read Matilda books
The Inside Out group (Year 5) to dress up and have fun with friends.

Happy reading!
