On Wednesday 19 May, our Pre-Prep to Year 3 students participated in National Simultaneous Storytime with an intergalactic twist. The young learners gathered to listen to a reading of Philip Bunting’s book ‘Give me some Space!’, read by NASA Astronaut, Dr Shannon Walker, all the way from the International Space Station.

Over one million children across Australia and New Zealand participated in the reading. This annual literary event, held by the Australian Library and Information Association, showcases the value of reading and storytime activities in communities across Australia.
