Dear Families
We are very excited to invite Years 7-10 families to take part in our OpenBook reading initiative.
OpenBook is an adult/child buddy reading program to promote reading and conversation within families that will take place during the mid-year winter break. Interested families are asked to sign up and choose a book from a robust selection. The book (two copies) will be sent home in a complimentary book bag, with discussion points to promote conversation and observation. It’s a chance to have a shared experience with your child; one that encourages connections and a great sense of belonging. Think of it as a family book club.
When Term 3 resumes, students will be asked to return the novels and cards, however, the bookbag remains with you as a small gift.
We have a selection of novels for all types of readers: avid, reluctant, discerning. Please feel free to contact us here in the library if you have questions. Remember, that sometimes it only takes 20 minutes a day of reading to see a difference in the way your child engages with the world. What a better way for them to experience that than with you part of that journey?
Please sign up and make your selections using this Google form.
If you have any questions or would like further information please contact me or one of the Library staff.
We hope you enjoy reading and discussing these great books.
Yours sincerely
Susan Lombardo
Head of Library (5-12)
