Students at Tooradin Primary School got into character during their recent Book Week celebrations.

They immersed themselves in the wonder of stories and books and paraded around the school grounds dressed as their favourite character.

“Book Week is a well-loved highlight each year when we can highlight the importance of books in our learning and allow the characters to step out of the pages and flourish,” teacher Natalie Rodrigues said.

Students also invited their parents and friends during the week to share their fun of reading.
