Hi All,

Don’t forget that the SORA online and audio book app is available to all children.

Below are the steps to install on your device.

Select the ACEN member collection from the drop down menu and students will need to log into their school account using their school username and password.

SORA has over 30 000 age-appropriate books and approx. 3000 plus age-appropriate audio books available to download and read.

SORA is designed for children and has easy-to-use vertical screen options, attractive on-screen promotions, easily accessible statistics on reading completed, and rewards for reading.

SORA has been operational and widely used at Holy Trinity since 2019. SORA is easy for you and your children to access and is set up in age group stages - your children can only borrow books that are within certain age groups. SORA is a resource that is funded by Catholic Education.

You can login to Sora with your child’s normal CENet login – used at school to login to our CE network.

Please note that on SORA some books are available to borrow all the time, some books may require a waiting time as limited numbers have been purchased, and most books have a timeframe in which they are on loan to a borrower. HT borrowing statistics are also sent to me regularly

Finally, a second call out for 5 more parent volunteers to act as “Library Book Coverers” for 2025 - If you have a spare hour or two, I will send home a bag of 10 books, per volunteer, per term. It’s not a hard job and I try to match the books with your family. If you feel up to the challenge, please email me at Kate.mertz@cg.catholic.edu.au or send a note via your child.

Happy Reading,

Kate J
