Stage 2 students are very excited to welcome our 2017 Writer in Residence, children's author Wai Chim, to our school next week. Wai Chim will be visiting all Stage 2 classrooms to host specialised writing classes for our students. During Library lessons this term, Years 3 and 4 have been familiarising themselves with some of Wai's books we are lucky enough to have in our library. We can't wait to share some of our work from our writing sessions with you next week! Welcome to a brand new year in the SHPS Library! We are excited to announce that the 2017 Premier's Reading Challenge will launch on Monday the 6th of March. All students will be briefed about the PRC during Library lessons from Week 7 in Term 1 and encouraged to borrow from our specific PRC book categories.
All of the details for the 2017 PRC can be found on the website - https://online.det.nsw.edu.au/prc/home.html To login, students will need their username and password they use to access the Kidspace Portal. Classroom Teachers can help retrieve this information. PRC Titles in the K - 2 category (marked with a Pink Star) are located separately in the school library for ease of selection. Yrs 3 - 4 (marked with a Yellow Star) and Yrs5 - 6 (marked with a green star) are able to select appropriately marked books from the library shelves. All titles read aloud to Kindergarten, Year One and Year Two students during library lessons in Terms One and Two have automatically been added to K, Y1 or Y2 students' PRC records online. |
