BOOK FAIR 2023

Book Fair Procedures for 2023 

Dear Parents/Carers,  

Reading for pleasure unlocks the power of information and imagination and helps children discover who they are. Here’s what you can do to help children develop stronger reading skills and a love for reading:  

• Support regular borrowing and returning.  

• Set the example. Let children see you read.  

• Have a collection of books in your home. Update this collection routinely to keep up with changing tastes and reading skills.  

• Support our school’s Book Fair. Allow your children to choose their own books to own.   

The theme of our Scholastic Book Fair is Hats off to Reading!  

It’s a fun reading event that brings the books kids want to read right into our school. It’s a wonderful selection of engaging and affordable books for every reading level.   

This is how it will work:  

STEP 1: Students browse Book Fair during their Library session in Weeks 5 or 6. They will complete a Wish List and take a catalogue home.  

STEP 2: Decide which books you would like to purchase using the Digital Price Catalogue or the student’s Wishlist. 

STEP 3:  Complete the Wishlist including title and price per book and add up the total cost.   

Parents can easily make credit card purchases online:                  

STEP 4: If paying by credit card, visit https://scholastic.com.au/payment.  

STEP 5: Choose State – NSW and Search for South Grafton Public School.  

STEP 6: Complete your details including your name and total payment amount.  

STEP 7: Pay online and then write the receipt number on the back of the Wish List or Catalogue.  

STEP 8: Student brings receipt number into the Library to collect the books.  

STEP 9: Receipt number is checked with Scholastic and books are given.  

STEP 10: OR students or parents/ carers may purchase using cash, EFT or credit card in the Library. 

Book Fair is open from Monday 14 August to Friday 25 August, 2023. 

In WEEK 5 students will be browsing during class time and creating their Wishlist.

OPENING HOURS FOR SALES IN WEEK 6 are 8.30-9am & 3-4pm for parents/ carers. Also open lunchtimes for students.
