What a better way for them to experience that than with you part of that journey?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Term 3 resumes, students will be asked to return the novels and discussion cards, however, the bookbag remains with you as a small gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week we sent Years 7-10 families the Google form for those interested to sign up.
