Book donations - we need your help!

Do you have any old chapter books that you no longer want?

We are looking for chapter books of a range of lengths that would be suitable for Years 3-6. We are particularly looking for books by a range of authors. See below for a few ideas of the types of books we are after.

If you have any books that you would be happy to donate, please place them in the drop-off box in the main office.

Thank you!
