📚 Book an Adventure for Book Week 2025! 📚 This year's Book Week saw St. John Paul II take an underwater, pirate adventure approach to our time in library, with the library being transformed into a glittery arena of floating jellyfish 🪼and brightly coloured coral🪸. Students participated in a week of reading activities where we learned to read and write in new ways by creating Morse code bracelets and keychains. We learned new skills from the pages of a book to support our adventuring by learning new and increasingly complicated knots. We raced against each other in a scavenger hunt to locate pirate story tropes and characters. We engaged in interactive storytelling in a dice-based fantasy narrative. And we had had some goofy fun playing in our underwater photobooth📸. We hope you had a wonderful week with us in the library and look forward to seeing you with us reading all year long! #BookWeek2025 #STJPIICollege #UnderwaterAdventure #DiveIntoReading #BookWeekMagic #ReadingAdventure #LoveBooks

💛 R U OK? Day 💛 Yellow Day @ StJPIICC Today our College came together in a sea of yellow to remind one another that every day is the right day to ask, “R U OK?” 🌼 As part of Wellbeing Week, students and staff wore yellow to raise awareness about the importance of checking in with friends, family, and classmates or even someone you don’t know well 💬💛. A simple conversation can make a big difference, because together, we can create a caring and supportive community. 💬✨ #StJPIICC #RUOKDay #WellbeingWeek #YellowDay #YouAreNotAlone
