Book Week 

From the 18th to the 22nd of August students at Brighton Primary School celebrated Book Week and its theme ‘Book an Adventure. Across the week students participated in several activities held throughout the school. 

Dress UP Parade 

Our Book Week Dress Up Parade was held on Wednesday the 20th of August and was a highlight of the week for many staff and students. Our families put in a tremendous amount of effort and all students looked amazing as they paraded around the gym. It was also wonderful to see so many families join us for this special event. 

Special Library Session 

During Book Week our Library was transformed by our Librarian Nicole Sutczak into Bush Adventure Wonderland. This fitted in with the Book Week of ‘Book an Adventure’ and allowed students go on their very own bush adventure during their very special library session. During their library session students were invited to explore bush craft skills, first aid, rope tying and using compasses and maps. Students also engaged in activities such as interacting with Australian animal puppets, a nature camping display, guess the animal game, exploring a spider cave, creating unique animals and reading books related to the Australian bush. Thank you to Evan and Kristie Bennett for supplying some native flora and creating the camp area.
