Don't forget- May is Scholastic National Family Reading Month.

National Family Reading Month is celebrating 25 years of encouraging families to read more together. In the month of May you are encouraged to make reading a priority

On Wednesday all classes participated in National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS).

The book was “GIVE ME SOME SPACE” by Philip Bunting.

It was read by the astronaut Dr Shannon Walker from the International Space Station. Astronauts reading stories from space to school children & families was an exciting new program that combined literature with science! 

This event is held annually by the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA). Every year a picture book, written and illustrated by an Australian author and illustrator, is read simultaneously in libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, family homes, bookshops and many other places around the country. This event aims to promote the value of reading and literacy, using an Australian children's book that explores age-appropriate themes.
