Book Parade A Great Success

The book character parade on Friday 17th August was a terrific way to start Book Week celebrations. Students and staff joined in the spirit of the day dressing up as characters from many different books. Book Council of Australia short listed books were popular for costume inspiration. 
 The Last Viking proved a hit with quite a few children and Mr Dilley, all dressing up as Viking warriors and The Dream of The Thylacine story was turned into a walking book by Joel Benkoe and his family. Very creative!!
As always, there were lots of princesses and fairies. Spiderman, Batman and the Hulk made an appearance. Little Red Riding Hood and other fairytale characters were popular. Where's Wally was spotted a few times as were some Kindergarten teachers impersonating blue Smurfs.
Great fun was had by all.
Post a comment saying what you thought of the Book Week Parade.

And......Don't forget that the Scholastic Book Fair is on this week. So pop into the library, have a look and perhaps buy a book.
