Maungaraki School —

Book Exchange

Open before and after school in Room 10 each Friday. The Book Exchange will be open for children to swap a book they've read for a new-to-them book. If there is no book there that they want that day, the voucher that they get for trading in a book will be held in Room 10 until they find one that they like.If they wish to, they make keep their chosen book forever, or they may bring it in for a new one the following week. We have hundreds of novels and picture books, so bring in books in great condition, and swap for a new book! The Maungaraki Book Exchange is all about supporting children in developing a love of reading. We hope our Book Exchange will provide a small way of helping children keep reading new books without incurring any cost, as well as learning about the value of recycling.

BOOK FAIR

A huge thank you for supporting our book fair this year, both on site and online.  It has been very successful and we sold nearly $5000 worth of books.

We will be getting a commission that will be used to update our library books and provide new books in your children's classrooms.  We feel very lucky to have such a supportive community.

Thanks again and enjoy your new books!
Jen Long and Julz
