Book Week
Book Week was celebrated across the country this week and it was terrific to see both staff and students get into the spirit of the day by enjoying the opportunity to dress up. The day started with a shared Google Meet of Mr.Cooper reading the short listed book 'Louie & Snippy Save the Sea' followed by our outside, social distanced Parade of Characters .... with the school chooks joining in as well.
In the middle session of the day in house Teams we rotated through activities based around three of the short-listed books while after lunch we had our annual live performance of a CBCA book. This year the book chosen by Meerkat Productions was THREE a heartwarming story of a three-legged dog. Normally we would have the performances live at our school but due to the travel restrictions Meerkat have had to be flexible so we watched the show performed live from their Sydney studios. We are happy to support this terrific small business and these performing artists in such a challenging economic time and wish them every success in the times ahead. We certainly hope to see them in the flesh in 2021 as giving our students access to live theatre is a priority for us at Lumen Christi.
We thank everyone who participated enthusiastically on the day and in particular acknowledge the contributions of Mrs.Wilson and Mrs.Colaciello.
