QLD School Library Week - Feb 14 - 18
Next week we are celebrating Queensland School Library week (QSLW). Libraries positively influence the learning outcomes of students through teaching multiple literacies and encouraging a lifelong love of learning and reading. Our Mackay West SS library encompasses all these wonderful traits and so much more. Thanks Mrs Spillman and Mrs Todd for all your great work in our libraries.
The theme for this year’s Queensland School Library week is “The Heart of Learning.” Next week, our students will be embracing this theme by writing what they love about our school libraries on special “heart” shaped post-it notes to display on the walls of our library.
Student are also welcome to join in the QSLW competition which has two categories; Prep - Year 2 and Year 3 - Year 6.
- Prep - Year 2: What do you love about your school library? Draw or paint a picture to illustrate this. Your picture should be on an A4 sheet. Add a caption if you like.
- Year 3 - Year 6: Take a photo or produce an artwork inspired by the theme: School Libraries - The Heart of Learning.
