National Simultaneous Storytime at Yeppoon Library
Join us for National Simultaneous Storytime, as we read Bowerbird Blues simultaneously along with libraries, schools, and bookshops across Australia. Followed by a craft session for children.
National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS) 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. Now in its 24th successful year, it is a colourful, vibrant, fun event that aims to promote the value of reading and literacy, using an Australian children's book that explores age-appropriate themes, and addresses key learning areas of the National Curriculum for Foundation to Year 6.
This year National Simultaneous Storytime takes place on Wednesday 22 May 2024 at 12:00pm and we would love it if you could join us at the Yeppoon Library.
A craft activity aimed at children will commence after the book reading.
We look forward to seeing you on the day!
