News from the Library

Laura the Librarian —

Scholastic Book Fair

We would like to say a huge thank you our community for supporting our recent Scholastic Book Fair. Over $10,000 worth of books and accessories were sold during the week, of which we will receive over $3,000 in Scholastic rewards for our school to spend on books and resources. Ngā mihi nui ki a koe!

Hells Pizza Wheels

Below are some of our awesome students who have completed their Hell Pizza Wheels so far this term!  Students read seven books and answer a question, or write a book review of each, and they earn a free kids size Hell Pizza. We are very proud of them! The Hell Pizza Wheels will be running until the end of this year so there is still plenty of time to start and finish one. Completed Wheels must be used by 31st January 2025.

Ebooks and Audiobooks from the Eplatform

Students have access to audiobooks and ebooks anytime, anywhere with the Kaurilands eplatform.  https://kaurilands.eplatform.co/

  3. Search for, borrow and read or listen to any book you want!
