Lots of new books coming into Library at present, thanks to the grant from McCarthy Trust!.

Book Club issue 3 was processed last week and should be arriving at school any day.

Library will be closed 7 to 9 June as I will be away.

LIBRARY COMPETITION!

I would like to encourage students at Tawa School to contribute work to a new journal for young writers and artists.

TOITOI magazine.

http://www.toitoi.nz/   

They can submit a story, a poem a picture or all of these things!

The closing date for the next Journal is 8 July. 

You can email entries via the website. Note that a teacher or parent needs to approve the entry.

  Please send the hard copies of any work done to the library for display and I will have some prizes for my favourite entries from each syndicate. BY FRIDAY 24 JUNE please

There is a copy of the journal in the school library and you are welcome to come and look at it.
