UBS News and Events

Unfortunately the Wellbeing in Education in New Zealand conference planned for early April in Christchurch and Auckland has been postponed - another victim of Covid-19.  With the country heading into lock-down, it has never been more appropriate to discuss emotional and mental health and wellbeing in conjunction with protecting our physical health.  We had put together a great selection of books to show delegates at the conference, so, to enable us to still share them with you, we have compiled some themed order forms featuring  just a few of the latest titles.  These, and other titles in each category, can also be viewed and ordered on our web site.

We also have an order form for EK Books, primarily for younger children, which indicates the issues that they deal with.  We are still putting some of these titles on the website, but they will be in the general areas, so you may have to search by title.

The University Bookshop, Canterbury, is now a Learning Destination for the Children's University.  Download your UBS Book Bingo Activity Sheet from here.  When you have completed it, bring it into the shop for and instant prize and a stamp for 6 hours in your Learning Passport.

We have produced some book lists that we hope will be of use to secondary educators.  The books listed are all currently available, most in stock in the shop.  They are broadly themed in a way that we hope will fit into curriculum and teaching topics.  If you require quotes, more information, or would like to place an order, please email mary@ubscan.co.nz.  If there are any other topics that we can help with, please let us know and we will endeavour to put a list together.
