Young bookworms at Derrimut Primary School celebrated children’s book week in style, dressing up as a range of zany characters from their favourite stories.
Derrimut Primary School learning and reading specialist Rachael Dowling said book week brings the school community together to celebrate their love for literacy.
“As a school it’s about building a love of reading, it’s for the students and being able to express their different loves of reading and different types of books,” Ms Dowling said.
“It’s a way to be creative. It’s not just about reading, it’s about writing too.”
Children’s book week celebrated its 80th year in 2025.
This year’s theme for the event was ‘book an adventure.’
