Scholastic Book Club has been partnering with Australian schools for over 50 years and we are proud to be a part of this fantastic initiative which supports literacy and bridging the class-to-home reading gap.
Our P&C nominates a Book Club Coordinator to assist our school families with this convenient and affordable way to get books into homes. Every order earns Scholastic Rewards for our school which our Librarian uses to purchase new educational resources for our school library.
Book Club has 8 issues per year (2 per term) and parents are encouraged to order using the Scholastic app, LOOP (our school is listed as Greenwood West Primary School). Alternatively, Book Club catalogues can be collected from the school office or at the school library. Orders must be in before the due date otherwise late orders will incur a home delivery fee. (Please note: LOOP is not managed by our P&C)
Once our school orders have closed, the team at Scholastic picks and packs the orders and sends it to our school as one bulk delivery. Generally, it takes about two weeks for our school orders to arrive. Our Book Club Coordinator sorts and distributes the orders to teachers to hand out to students.
Sometimes, parents order birthday or Christmas presents from Book Club so, there is a GIFT option on LOOP. Gift orders are separated and taken to the office so that parents can be notified to collect their order. (Please note: Gift option is available on LOOP only. Gift orders are not wrapped)
Book Club isn’t just for students. There’s also a special Teacher’s Edition which staff are encouraged to order from as there are some great resources available just for them.
