Book Week Thank You Messages

Thank you to all the parents and family members who put in such an enormous effort with our Book Week celebrations this year! The parade on Friday was a lot of fun and filled with colour.

I feel very proud of our students with the manner in which they participated. We are almost too big to fit in the hall anymore! Well done students of Prescott Primary Northern.

The Book Week Snack Shop was also a great success. I would like to thank all the students for their patience when waiting to be served. I would especially like to thank Ella H, Erika I and Mia W for their amazing help and ability to think quickly in our busy sales lunchtime.

Mrs. Heidik was an amazing help with putting away library books ALL WEEK to help me keep up! Thank you. She also helped to sort our Mrs. Wegener’s spare costumes for students who did not get one organized. Thank you to Mrs Sam Hann also for helping with the costumes.  There are so many kind people in our school.

I would also like to give a huge thank you to Pr. Braden and Miss Born for their help before the Book Week Dress Up Parade began. They helped to get the hall ready for us all. Pr. Matt also helped to put up the letters “Find Your Treasure” because he is very tall!

The Book Fair was visited by many families and we sold almost $2,300 worth or books and stationary. Thank you. Our school gets 30% of that back in new books for our library collection.

Competitions

The lolly guessing jars were won by Charlie W (Foundation/1), Jackson B (Year 2/3),  Allaire B (Year 4/5), and Ellie W with Garima S (Year 6/7).
