Red+Dot+Intro

November 30, 2009 **LAUNCH OF** THE RED DOT BOOK AWARDS We would love as many schools as possible to participate in this event. Participation is not restricted to member schools, so if you have connections outside our network, please share this information with them.

All schools (or individual classes) that are interested in taking part can register their interest by taking a simple survey, preferably before **11 December**. Click here to take the survey. The exciting news for //School Members// of ISLN is that there will be a bonus welcome pack (valued at $65.50) of four of the shortlisted books for the first 20 schools that express interest. The titles are 

· **Ten** by Shamini Flint · **The Silence Seeker** by Ben Morley · ** Pearl ** **Verses the World** by Sally Murray · **Mac Slater, Cool Hunter** by Tristan Bancks

The ISLN Executive Committee has agreed to allocate $2000 to assist //School Members// with budgetary restrictions by ordering books that they have selected (up to $300 per school) and providing deferred payment until May 2010 if required. If you would like to take advantage of this please complete the  [|__expression of interest__] as soon as possible and a committee member will contact you.

If you are not a School Member – check you membership status here – there is an option on the [|expression of interest] form to upgrade now to enable you to take advantage of these great offers.


 * There are two titles that will need to be ordered** **in bulk** **from** **Australia****. Our sponsor, Australian Standing Orders has agreed to deliver these prior to Christmas if we provide them with details before 6 December.

Please** place your order here **as soon as possible and we will organise delivery as soon as they land in** **Singapore** **with payment due in 2010.**

Please do not hesitate to contact Katie or myself if you require any further assistance.

Have a great holiday and a wonderful New Year.
