Book Week 2024 by Miss Tilley
Book Week kicked off this year with a visit from award-winning author Cristy Burne, AKA ‘Crusty Bum’.
She entertained, inspired and taught us to never give up.
A few of the students were lucky enough to attend an inspiring writing workshop with Cristy afterwards. She worked with the students giving them techniques to create interesting characters, dialogue and how to make a story exciting. Cristy was also gracious enough to sign autographs afterwards.

Once again, the Book Fair was a huge success, a big thanks to all who attended. A whopping $1823 was raised for new library books for the school.
At Alkimos we finished the week off with a Book Week Parade, there were many AMAZING costumes this year. Thank you everyone for making Book Week 2024 a great success from all the staff at Alkimos Primary.
