We would like

to thank him for

his week long

visit to Findon

and hope to

see him again.

The Annual Scholastic Book

Fair had a special visitor

this year. Geronimo Stilton,

is an author, editor and

mouse detective. His book

“The Curse of the Cheese

Pyramid” won the Ratitzer

Prize in 2008. He was born

in New Mouse City, Mouse

Island. He studied

Mousomorphic Literature

and Neo-Ratonic

Comparative Philosophy. In

his spare time he collects

antique cheese rinds and

plays golf. He most enjoys

telling stories to his

nephew Benjamin Mouse

and visiting schools for

Book Fairs.

At Findon Primary School he

particularly liked the green

slide and when he was tired he

rested in the library.

He very much enjoyed the year

2 sleepover where I hear

reports he was quite a mover/

dancer at the disco.

He was a little shy at assembly

but thanks to all the well

behaved children he felt brave

enough to stand up in front of

all the school.

The Scholastic Book

Fair raised over $650

in vouchers to spend

on new books for our

school library.

Geronimo Stilton's

favourite places at

Findon PS are the

library where his

books can be

borrowed and in

kitchen where he

likes to nibble the

cheese.

Geronimo Stilton

novels are on the

Premiers’ Reading

Challenge for years 3

and 4’s.

Thea Stilton, his

sister is an

international

journalist and has

her own series of

books.

We ran a competition

during Book Fair where

teachers “caught” students

reading. If caught, they

were given a ticket to enter

the raffle. At the end of the

week Geronimo Stilton

drew the raffle. One winner

from each year level

received a $10 voucher to

spend at the Book Fair.

Well done to everyone

caught reading.
