Overlockers and sewing machines, hot glue guns and paper mâché formations worked overtime last week to prepare costumes for the 2024 Book Week Parade at Barham’s Riverside Park.
For those time-restricted or creatively impaired, it was a flying trip to costume shops to gather all the bibs and bobs needed to help bring book characters to life!
Barham Preschool, Public and High Schools joined together for the parade with Koondrook Preschool and Primary School in a sea of colour to showcase costumes which were limited only by their imagination.
Students were given awards at the end of the parade for their writing and illustration talents.
See all the stories and photos from Book Week in the district in the issue.
