Secondhand Book Exchange
This year Newington’s Secondhand Book Exchange runs from Thursday 22 November to Wednesday 28 November. The Secondhand Book Exchange enables students to buy and sell secondhand quality compulsory texts at a reduced price. This service is organised and run by the Newington Women’s Group for the benefit of students and their families.
Forms for next year’s books will be distributed on November 16. There are quite a few changes to the Secondhand Book Exchange this year, so please read the following carefully:
To BUY Secondhand books:
- All boys wishing to purchase secondhand books should complete an appropriate BUY form.
- Ms Angelo in the Student Office will begin collecting completed BUY forms from Monday November 19.
- Orders will be processed in order of receipt.
- We cannot guarantee that CDs will be provided with texts.
- Books will be distributed in the week commencing Monday 26 November.
To SELL Secondhand books:
- Complete an appropriate SELL form and bring it to school with your books.
- We will be collecting books on November 22, 23 and 24 (yes, on Saturday).
- Collection/Sorting will be carried out in the Function Room (a change of location).
- Year 7-12 boys may drop books from 8.00am to 4.00pm on any of these three days.
- Due to book changes and updates, we cannot guarantee the sale of your books. Any unsold books will be considered a donation to the school or sent to for Tupou College in Tonga.
- There is no sale of Year 7 texts as 2013 Year 7 boys will be using digital iPad versions of textbooks only. We are still happy to accept Year 7 texts as donations.
