Dear Families
Week 6 is Book Week here at EPS!
On Friday the 19th of August we will have a PJ/DEAR Day. Students will come dressed in their PJs making a gold coin donation that goes to the Story Dogs volunteer program. On this day,the session before lunch all classes will participate in DEAR (Drop Everything and Read).
Many of you have seen or heard about our Story Dogs volunteers – Helen and her dog Mani, and Marie and her dog Hannah! These lovely ladies volunteer their time and their dogs to come and read to some of our Year 2 students. Helen and Marie absolutely love coming here to Edithvale Primary and the students who participate in the program can’t wait to share their experience of the program during assembly that day.

We look forward to a fun day of reading in our PJs on the 19th.
Regards,
