The children in KP (kindergarten) at Ellison Public School Springwood NSW, have read 100 books. Every day in Term 2, 2010 during silent reading time, four children each read a book to the teacher and then coloured-in a letter on the Classrooms Care chart. We were all very excited when we reached 100 books.

We hope that the children who receive the donated books will enjoy reading as much as we do.
