As Term3 draws to a close, teachers are booking shows for Term 4 - especially if they want a show in the last week of school.
There are lots of options on SFS - but the earlier you book, the more likely to get the date you'd like.
Thinking of Book Week 2026, we already have some great options. Search here . Unless they say 2025, all are available in 2026.
