St Bede's Braidwood perform at CBCA Book of the Year Awards
St Bede’s Braidwood was the school of choice to perform a drama presentation at the Children’s Book Council of Australia (CBCA) 2018 Book of the Year Awards in front of authors and illustrators at the National Library of Canberra.
St Bede’s teacher Emma Hillsdon coordinated the professional production titled 'Find Your Treasure', the theme for Book Week 2018, with fifteen students portraying elements from the shortlisted titles.
The school’s Assistant Principal and talented illustrator, Julian Laffan, was fortunate to be on the Picture Book Panel for 2017 and 2018 and has helped greatly in promoting the CBCA to Catholic schools.
The CBCA has been celebrating children's literature since 1945 and these awards are intended to share some of the great talent and the scope and diversity of Australian publishing.
