Book Week

St James’ celebrated a week full of reading, imagination, and creativity across the entire School. This year, our annual Book Parade brought colour, creativity, and fun to campus as our Kindergarten – Year 6 students and staff dressed up as characters from their favourite books. The Book Parade is always a highlight of the year, reminding us of the power of imagination and the lasting joy of reading. Students paraded proudly in front of their peers, celebrating the joy that reading brings to our lives.

Senior School students embraced the week by listening to teachers share their favourite reads, which gave them the opportunity to enter the Book Week competition.

Meanwhile, the library buzzed with activity as the annual Book Fair took place, adding to the excitement and further nurturing a love of stories within our community.

A heartfelt thank you to our students, families, and staff whose enthusiasm and support made this such a memorable event!
