Book Week Celebrations are coming … August 18th – 22nd
On Monday 18th August, we will start with our Book Character Dress up day. Students can come dressed as their favourite Book Character and we will hold a whole school parade at 9.15am. We welcome our school community to come along and have some fun with us as we share our costumes. You may like to decorate a hat, decorate a t-shirt or use any items you have at home to represent your favourite book character.
On Thursday 21st August we have an incredible incursion with a live performance titled Treasure Hunt. Perform Education will provide us with an educational musical adventure linked to this year’s Book Week theme, Book an Adventure. The production will run two sessions, Prep – 2, aimed at junior students and a 3-6 production for senior primary students. This incursion has been booked with an early bird fee for families of $8.55 per student. This is payable through Compass.
Our annual Book Fair will begin on Monday 18th of August and finish Friday 22nd of August. The Book Fair will be open to students during their Library session where students can bring cash in a named envelope to purchase new, fantastic quality and popular books. Junior and senior fiction books, activity packs, journals, picture story books and non-fiction books will all be available for as little as $2 and up to $30. Book Fair will also be open to families between 3.30pm and 4pm each day, in the Library. In order to run a smooth and successful Book Fair we are asking for parent volunteers to help us out after school each day for half an hour. If you are available and able to support us as a cashier or supervising, can you please fill in the form below and return it to the school office or email me at leanne.bentley@education.vic.gov.au Your time and support is always greatly appreciated.
Cash sales and EFTPOS will be available at the Book Fair.

ROCK BOTTOM – BORONIA HEIGHTS PS 2025 PRODUCTION
Our 2025 whole school production ‘Rock Bottom’ is fast approaching. It will be on Wednesday 30th July and Thursday 31st July at the Besen Centre (Mt. Scopus Memorial College, Station St, Burwood).
Please note that all Prep – 4 students will only perform one night. All Prep – 4 siblings should be scheduled for the same night. Please let Mr. Fox know if siblings have been accidentally scheduled on different nights. All Year 5 and 6 students will perform both nights.
Last term, all families with a Prep – 4 student should have received a notice informing them which night their child is performing, the Wednesday or Thursday. If you did not receive this notice, please email Mr Fox at simon.fox@education.vic.gov.au and he will let you know your child’s performance night.
Tickets have gone on sale through Try Booking (online sales only) on Monday 26th May, at 6.00pm. We scheduled an evening time for tickets to go on sale, so working parents were not disadvantaged. Adult tickets are $30 and Child Tickets (under 16) are $20. Please note that student performers do not require a ticket on their performance night.
