 Family Book Club 

Our next book to read together at home is “Wilder than Midnight” written by Cerrie Burnell. Published in 2022, this book is available online and from most bookshops.   

 Silverthorne is a place of secrets. A forest of twisting paths and tangled thorns. A castle with locked towers and whispers of tragedy. A village trapped between terrors known and unknown. But something is stirring in the leaves . . . 
 
Saffy is a good girl, tired of being told to stick to the forest paths, and always follow the rules. 
Aurelia is a hidden girl, locked in a castle tower, dreaming of escaping the fate she's told awaits her. 
Wild Rose is a fierce girl, raised by wolves, full of spells and fearlessness and cunning.   

Together, they will change life in Silverthorne forever.

We will meet to chat about the book on Monday afternoon 26th May in Week 6 which gives families plenty of time to be reading together. Students who have read the book with an adult are welcome at the book chat without their family member if this time is unsuitable due to other commitments. 

Family Reading week  

This term, Family Reading Week is set down for Week 9. During this week, regular homework is replaced with shared reading time, so break out those favourite stories, library books and great information books and spend time reading together. Send your classroom teacher a photo of where and what you are reading! 

 Happy reading everyone!
