2020 Book Week

Book Week

Book Character Dress-Up Day

Wednesday 4th November

WPS Celebrates Book Week (a little differently)!

Book Week is just around the corner and even though COVID 19 restrictions have impacted the way we do things we will still be celebrating Book Week but just a little differently this year.

Book Week is a special event for children across Australia and we love getting children excited about reading. As our aim is to bring students and books together, we invite all students to come dressed as a book character either fictional or real or as something relating to the Book Week theme ‘Curious Creatures, Wild Minds’ on Wednesday 4th November.

If possible could your child also bring along the book or a picture of the book cover to let others know the book their character is from.

For inspiration regarding simple ‘Do It Yourself Book Character Costume’ ideas go to:

Or for for a costume interpreting the theme ‘Curious Creatures, Wild Minds’ go to: https://www.familiesmagazine.com.au/childrens-book-week-costume-ideas/

The teachers look forward to seeing our students come dressed as their book character of choice. We will miss seeing you there but as we are complying with COVID 19 restrictions, this event is not open to parents.

Thank you to all parents and carers for your support, enthusiasm and creativity!

Kind regards,

The Library Team (Mrs Azar, Mrs Oommen & Mrs Kougellis)
