2022 Readers Cup is now open for registrations
The popular Readers Cup is on again this year. It's where school teams come together to challenge their knowledge of books. Teams read a set of books, and then compete with other school teams to answer quiz questions from the books.
Readers Cup challenges students to read widely, work collaboratively in a team and continue developing a love of reading.
Register by 27 August.
The count down is on for the 2022 Book Week Announcement
Winning and Honour books will be announced by CBCA National. Then enjoy watching our local primary and high school student Shadow Judges present their creative piece based on their category of books.
It's on Friday 19 August at 11.30am at the National Library of Australia. Please register by 17 August.
CBCA Book Week Launch Dinner
Members and non-members are invited to a fun, friendly get-together the evening before the ‘big announcement’.
Enjoy a relaxed dinner in the company of bookish people and books, then sit back as Harry Laing entertains us with some wildly original poetry. Purchase books from The Book Cow, and one to donate to the CBCA’s annual Christmas Book Appeal. There may be a book launch or two to celebrate as well!
Also happy to confirm Vic CBCA member and author, Anna Battese will join us to share news of the second story in her junior fiction series, PD McPem’s Agency for Mysterious Mysteries. Yay!
Register by 14 August to secure your spot at Olims Hotel on Thursday 18 August.
