BOOK WEEK

CBCA Book Week is coming up in Week 5 of term 3 (18-22 August).

This year celebrates the 80th anniversary of the CBCA Book Week. The theme for this year's book week is "Book an Adventure".

We will hold our annual Book Week Parade at each campus in week 5 of term 3:

So, time to start thinking about a character to dress up as... look in your dress up box, wardrobe or the local Op-Shops for inspiration.

Costumes don’t need to be elaborate or expensive and the most imaginative ones are often ‘put together’ or constructed at home.

No prizes are awarded for costumes we just encourage everyone to dress up and join in the fun.
