Well, today found me zipping down the coast to Lakelands Primary at Dapto.
There were two things that really struck me about Lakelands Primary (apart from its gorgeous name). Firstly, the kids were extremely well-behaved and attentive and it was obvious that the teaching staff worked really hard towards this end. Secondly, there was a wonderful buzz on the playground after my sessions. Kids everywhere talking about their favourite stories, favourite books, favourite authors, planning their own stories, bursting with questions as I walked through. The excitement about books was palpable.
This is why I love Book Week. It energises me. Inspires. Motivates.
Great stuff.
Thanks, Lakelands.
