Scholastic is synonymous with schooling.

This publishing company has been delivering books to Australian schools and preschools for decades through Scholastic Book Club and Scholastic Book Fairs, and they’ve got some great titles to prepare your early learner for primary education.

Going to Big School and The Wild Guide to Starting School. are two reads that come recommended, because they take the mystery out of primary school and insert colour, fun and good feelings in its place.

Both of these books are great to read before your child’s first day, and they’re greater still if you win them with KindiCare!

Thanks to Scholastic, we’re giving away two book packs containing:

• Going to Big School by Laura Sieveking and Danielle McDonald, and
• The Wild Guide to Starting School. by Laura and Philip Bunting

And… because alpacas make everything better, each book pack also contains a copy of:

• Macca's Christmas Crackers, and
• Alpaca Picnic Panic both by Matt Cosgrove

For your chance to win the four books, just tell us in 25 words or less, how your child is feeling about their first day.

Send your entry to competitions@kindicare.com by 27 November 2022*, and if you’re looking for more books about big school, check out these top picks from our panel of experts.
