Each year, the Children’s Book Council of Australia brings children and books together through Book Week. On Wednesday the 28th of August, at Finigan SDE, we took the opportunity to celebrate Book Week together in our unique online environment!

We had 104 participants at our whole-school assembly on Teams, which is our biggest assembly yet! It was exciting to see students represented across all year groups, all of whom joined us for a lot of fun and frivolity throughout the morning. This was made even better, when they shared their love of specific characters, books, or series with each other, by using their microphones or posting in the fast-moving chat pod.

We held our ‘virtual costume parade’ with both staff and students at our assembly. It was fantastic to see everyone share their outfits, and we even spotted some magical backgrounds featured as well.

As part of Mental Health Month, Finigan art teachers Vivian and Anne organised Merry Magic Mondays - art activities for the staff. Last Monday some of the staff enjoyed creating Christmas angles with gel plate printing techniques.
