Welcome to Term 2, 2023
Big things are happening in the library this year.
The Senior Library is now also the home of the Primary Library, and so there are lots of little people in evidence!
Later this month, on 24 May, we will celebrate National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS).
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 23nd successful year, it is a colourful, vibrant, fun event that aims to promote the value of reading and literacy.
This year’s book is The Speedy Sloth, by author Rebecca Young and illustrator Heath McKenzie. Happy reading!
Also coming up this term, in Week 6 in the library, is the Blackfriars Chess Tournament. Now in its 4th year, it promises to be an exciting week as there are lots of chess players in the library at lunchtimes.
